Summary

Heavy rain pushed the Toccoa River, and the Ocoee River, to a record 18 feet near McCaysville, Georgia, and Copperhill, Tennessee, flooding downtown areas and damaging homes, businesses and roads. Water rose near residents' homes, coating belongings, ruining furniture and leaving buildings soggy; reports describe rescues by boat. Reports give different rescue figures. One death and one injury are recorded. Water service in McCaysville has been restored but is not safe to drink, and Copperhill is under a boil water advisory. Relief efforts include bottled water, hot meals, shelters, donation drives and volunteer cleanup, led by local officials and the American Red Cross. Several roads remain closed.
