The ecosystem our state had to respond to #HurricaneFloyd in 1999 was dismantled by the #ncga in 2014. #HurricaneMatthew hit in 2016 and #HurricaneFlorence in 2018. The NC Office of Recovery and Resiliency was created that year after the storm hit.

#GreenvilleNC sure dodged a bullet with #Florence. As per @NWS Tar River to crest at a little over 12 ft, not even minor flood stage & well below levels during #HurricaneFloyd (29.74 ft) and #HurricaneMatthew (24.46 ft).

Damage in #GreenvilleNC during #Florence #FlorenceNC limited.
After #HurricaneFloyd city purchased 491 properties via #FEMA buyout program, 2nd largest buyout in the US at the time. After #HurricaneMatthew city had only 18 properties to submit for a buy-out. Mitigation works!

Tar River expected to crest at just over 15 ft, which would be minor flood stage and well below levels experienced in Greenville #GreenvilleNC with #HurricaneFloyd (29.74 ft) and #HurricaneMatthew (24.46 ft)
