Each yellow mark is an impassable road that has been labeled so far. Lots of mudslides and roads being completely washed away.
Before and after of a place called Chimney Rock. This was their entire downtown.
Some other pictures.
As you can see this is in the mountains and complicates things quite a bit. Western NC has been deemed closed.
Asheville is inaccessible by road, they're all washed out. No electricity, gas, land lines, or even cell service because the floods took out the cell tower and the data center that handles the calls. The rivers reached 24.6ft(7.4 meters). A group of amateur pilots has set up a gofundme to airdrop supplies into the city. 
The Cajun Navy 
has dispatched and rescue helicopters are buzzing about.
There is a megathread here but it's very boring and mostly people trying to get in touch with loved ones. 
Some boomerbook group seems to be the only people getting any messages out of certain areas and I'm not sure if they're real.
Shout out to @BartholomewRoberts who had this to say about the hurricane yesterday.

Tony Blinken has only been pretending to be r-slurred all these years. Actually it was just an elaborate plot to fool our enemies. He just stole the mystical orb that Trump and the Saudi sultan touched and he's trying to take it to Ft. Knox.

Shit's REALLY bad, particularly in/around asheville. Lots and lots of buildings and vehicles totaled by flood damage.
Internet including cellular is largely disabled, with cell tower backup generators running out of fuel mid day yesterday.

Mountains cause storms to drop water. When a storm has to climb up a mountain it will reach lower air temperatures which will cause it to drop its water. Most flooding from hurricanes actually happens in the mountains. The first mountain range it hit was in North Carolina

Tell me when you get the kind of sustained rainfall that the soil can actually absorb so it can support a real forest.

I have family that went from their beach home to their mountain cabin to get away from the storm. Now they can't get out.
Fortunately they are on top of a mountain
so a little water isn't hurting them.

They have a lot of "alternative" types there. Folx not folks. It's the Portland of Appalachia, and also somehow the only place I've seen a black guy get called BIPOC by confederate flag waving rednecks. I try to drive around it when possible.

Climate Change is a leftist HOAX, along with dinosaurs and the so-called "ice age"
The climate has changed exactly ONCE in all of earth history and that was when G*D flooded the world to punish all of the plants and animals for MANS SINS especially SODOMY
The rainbow is GD's promise to us that he will never change the climate again. It's like GD's thermostat lockout on the world.
