Flood Advisory issued August 5 at 6:44PM EDT until August 5 at 9:30PM EDT by NWS Greenville-Spartanburg SC

* WHAT...
Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues.

* WHERE...
A portion of southeastern Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.

* WHEN...
Until 930 PM EDT.

* IMPACTS...
Nuisance flooding of low-lying areas adjacent to streams and other poor-drainage areas, including farmland, parks, greenways, boat-access areas, golf courses, underpasses, and parking lots. Isolated, shallow flows over roadways is possible.
A few flood-prone, low-water crossings may remain impassible.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 637 PM EDT, Doppler radar indicates significant rainfall has ended across Mecklenburg County. Automated streamgauges across the county show that most streams have crested and receded below bankfull levels. This includes the lower reaches of Sugar Creek and Little Sugar Creek near Pineville, where streamgauges now show stream levels are well-below Action Stage.
However, routed flow from upstream floodwaves continue to impact the lower reaches of Fourmile Creek and McAlpine Creek. Therefore, the Flood Advisory has been reduced in size to cover the area where high flows and nuisance flooding linger and also extended into the evening hours to allow streams to crest and recede below critical levels.
Areas of ongoing concern include: 1) along Fourmile Creek near Elm Lane and along the Fourmile Creek Greenway.
2) along McAlpine Creek near the McAlpine Creek Greenway, Vista Grande Cir, and the S Lancaster Hwy.
- Some locations that may continue to experience nuisance flooding include...
South Charlotte, Matthews, Pineville and The Arboretum.
