Drought Information

Thursday drought update

The Seacoast region holds on to drought but surface waters and topsoil have improved.

But to quote a friend that owns 100 wet acres, first time he has been able to mow in 30 years the typical wet spots.

Still believe the drought is not a major concern but will gauge where we are as we near July.

North Carolina

Firefighters are responding to a fire along Old NC 105 in the Linville Gorge Wilderness area. Crews are building containment lines surrounding the fire as it burns on both sides of the road south of the intersection on Forest Service Road 106.

At the this time, there are no closures but, the public is advised to avoid the areas and pay attention to any notices or posted closures so firefighters have the space to operate safely.

More information will be shared as it becomes available.

Smoke may affect nearby communities and roadways, especially as smoke settles in the evening and during morning commutes. Use caution if driving in the area. Check current road conditions at www.drivenc.gov/. For air quality information, visit fire.airnow.gov.
