Is this an informed estimate or just pulled out of your you-know? Because 50 miles is a long distance. I have trouble believing the damage would be catastrophic that far downstream, but I'm just pulling that out of my you-know.
 
My mothers house had never flooded in the 30 years she lived there, a few close calls with a rapidly rising creek in her back yard but never enough to enter the house. In August the tropical storm that came through changed that, she was on vacation and her entire basement flooded. Just got new carpet put in this week and BAM, Helene. Thankfully I made it over last night with a water barrier I purchased off of Amazon which spared her from disaster #2. Tell me again about climate change being a hoax....

No, it’s US 74 but it’s a 4 lane highway.

Hmm. That is what the caption says. I confused it with I-74, probably because I've driven on that and not on the other (to my knowledge). The 4 lane highway is the more important point, though.

Yes, it's a sizeable interchange on the eastern edge of Asheville two exits east of the main Biltmore exit. If the camera did a 180° it would be looking northwest up the I-240 loop which starts there from US-74
