The remnants of Tropical Storm Elsa will bring steady rain and gusty winds to central North Carolina on Thursday, including Forsyth, Guilford and Davidson counties, forecasters say.
The National Weather Service has issued a flash-flood watch for 30 counties in the region.
The watch will be in effect from 6 a.m. through 6 p.m. Thursday, the period during which the storm will travel over the stateâs central section, the weather service said.
Low-lying, poor drainage and normally flood-prone areas could become flooded on Thursday, the weather service said. Roads also could be flooded and impassable.
The storm will likely be downgraded to a tropical depression by Thursday as it passes over central North Carolina, said Chrissy Anderson, a weather-service meteorologist in Raleigh.
