Cabarrus NC-
610 PM EDT Tue Aug 11 2026
...FLOOD ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 1215 AM EDT WEDNESDAY...
* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall is expected.
* WHERE...Southwestern Cabarrus County in the piedmont of North
Carolina...
* WHEN...Until 1215 AM EDT Wednesday.
* 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 become impassible. A
small culvert washout or two is possible.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 609 PM EDT, Doppler radar and automated rain gauges indicated
torrential rain due to a stationary thunderstorm south of Mount
Pleasant and east of Harrisburg near Midland. Between 1 and 2
inches of rain have fallen so far, but an additional inch or more
of rainfall is possible before the causative thunderstorm weakens
or drifts away from the area. Given wet antecedent conditions
across southern Cabarrus County from multiple rounds of
thunderstorms over the past week, excessive runoff is likely to
cause rapid small stream rises and areas of adjacent lowland
flooding. Poorly draining intersections and low spots along
roadways are likely to flood. Exercise caution when encountering
ponding and avoid flooded roadways. Areas of greatest concern
include along Reedy Creek near Lower Rocky River Rd, Anderson
Creek near Bethel Church Rd, Horton Branch near Robert Bost Rd,
and Caldwell Creek near Rebel Dr.
Additional showers are developing over Harrisburg. While the
rainfall over Harrisburg has not been significant enough yet
to cause excessive runoff, the slow-moving nature of this
line of storms may result in excessive runoff within the next
60 minutes. Therefore, the Flood Advisory will extend
upstream within the Rocky River watershed across the southern
third of Cabarrus County.
- Some locations that may experience flooding include...
Harrisburg, Mt Pleasant, and Midland.

853 PM EDT Tue Aug 11 2026
...FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1215 AM EDT WEDNESDAY...
* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues.
* WHERE...Southwestern Cabarrus County in the piedmont of North
Carolina...
* WHEN...Until 1215 AM EDT.
* IMPACTS...Nuisance flooding of low-lying areas adjacent to streams
and other oor-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 become impassible. A small
culvert washout or two is possible.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 831 PM EDT, Heavy rainfall has ended across Cabarrus County.
However, storm-total rainfall of 2-4" occurred within a 2- to
3-hour period over the southeastern portion of the county from
Georgeville to Midland, resulting in flooding of small streams
impacting adjacent low-lying areas including farmland, woodlands,
and isolated residential yards and roadways. Further upstream
within the Rocky River watershed near Harrisburg, storm-total
rainfall of 0.75-1.5" occurred, which was not enough to cause
flooding to occur, outside of an isolated poor-drainage area or
two. However, the Flood Advisory will remain in effect through
930pm for the Rocky River watershed from Harrisburg to Midland
then will be reduced in size to cover the area from Georgeville
to Midland, to account for residual low-land flooding concerns
from earlier flash flooding.
Please avoid flooded roadways and obey all barricades, even if
flood waters have receded, in order to allow time for crews to
assess road/bridge stability following damaging stream flows.
Additional heavy rainfall from strong thunderstorms is possible
later tonight. Given saturated soils and swollen streams, any
additional heavy rainfall may cause new areas of flooding to
develop. Please stay weather aware and have multiple ways to
receive warnings, including via television, cellular phone, and
NOAA Weather Radio.
- Some locations that may continue to experience nuisance flooding
include...Midland.

...FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1215 AM EDT WEDNESDAY...
* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues.
* WHERE...South Central Cabarrus County in the piedmont of North
Carolina...
* WHEN...Until 1215 AM 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, and parking lots.
Isolated, shallow flows over roadways is possible. A few
flood-prone, low-water crossings may be impassible.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 928 PM EDT, Heavy rainfall has ended across Cabarrus County.
However, storm-total rainfall of 2.5-4.5" occurred within a 2- to
3-hour period over the southeastern portion of the county from
Georgeville to Midland, resulting in Minor flash flooding of
small streams impacting adjacent low-lying areas including
farmland, woodlands, and isolated residential yards and roadways.
Earlier this evening, Cabarrus County Emergency Management
reported the flash flooding of a few roadways including:
* Clydesdale Dr near Saddlebrook Dr and Mustang Dr
* NC 27/24 near Riceland Way
* Bethel Church Rd near Horton Branch and Robert Bost Rd
* Reed Mine Rd near Little Meadow Creek and Hartsell Rd
While the more significant flash flooding has ended, elevated
streamflows continue and areas of adjacent lowland nuisance
flooding are ongoing. Therefore, a Flood Advisory will remain in
effect through approximately 10:30-11:00p to allow streams and
remnant flooded areas to recede.
Please continue obey all barricades, even if flood waters have
receded, in order to allow time for crews to assess road/bridge
stability following damaging stream flows.
Additional heavy rainfall from strong thunderstorms is possible
later tonight. Given saturated soils and swollen streams, any
additional heavy rainfall may cause new areas of flooding to
develop. Please stay weather aware and have multiple ways to
receive warnings, including via television, cellular phone, and
NOAA Weather Radio.
