National Weather Service confirmed dam concerns

"over the dam" you can mitigate, "around the dam" is a completely different situation.

Its prounounced Lake L U R E, like a fishing Lure ...

Damn, that is a lot of water. I hope everything holds up.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

You folks need to learn what “imminent” means.

Lookout Shoals Dam is as much in Iredell County is it is in Catabaw County. After all, it has a Statesville address.

If they don’t evacuate then they shouldn’t expect to be rescued. A their stupidity is not worth first response’s life.

Don’t you just appreciate the American Democratic governments prompt + efficient use of the legal citizen’s taxes, 4 the foreign alien’s illegitimate races residencies here ?

[ednasierzant]

Core of engineers please check these dams structure and age nite be a detriment 😊😊

[StarshipTrooper]

God Speed folks! Prayers going up for you!

[scottk]

They asked the people to move. If they were immigrants the government would fly them out and put them up in hotels.

When are these people going to learn that we need to change our bad habits ? It's only going to get worse.
There's already another tropical storm brewing in the Caribbean heading to the gulf.

Quit praying, start preparing! God ain't gonna help you.

When it comes to climate change remember, it's been changing from the beginning of time.

Don’t the damns get engineered to hold water until it’s full, then auto release from overflow? Why so many poorly engineered systems? Do they want them to fail?

[larrybryant]

You should make up a new word for eminent danger.

[johnjackson]

the officials have said the dam is fine. This is clic bait.

[AudiTTQuattro]

It is almost like climate change might be a real thing...almost (sarcasm).

[davidmellet]

US goverment should be funding this effort, and not be cheap about it, ukraine can wait
