Surry County Floods Leave Devastation | Durham News
Description
Surry County, North Carolina, braced for disaster as torrential rains dumped five to ten inches in hours, triggering catastrophic flash flooding that forced Mount Airy into a State of Emergency. The Ararat River surged to nearly 29 feet, swallowing roads, bridges, and homes. Emergency crews rescued six stranded motorists, while widespread damage to infrastructure and private property left streets impassable. Officials warn the cleanup will be massive — this was no ordinary storm, it was a full-blown crisis for the county.
