@RaleighWx Curious about the difference NAM (more sleet) and HRRR (more freezing rain) are putting out. Which do you think is identifying precip types better?

@SCweather_wx Big boost in the mood for your foothill snow-starved brethren. I’m still skeptical.

@EFisherWX As someone who lived on the hill above Thompson St for the last couple of years. I was stunned when I walked down to River Mills lofts and walked along what was left of the road the day after Helene. I didn’t know if it would ever come back.

@moaleck Montana, Thanks for the updates on that fire. Stay safe. Could The Post and Courier in Charleston, SC, also use one of your photos for a story. Thanks in advance.

Great news overnight! The fire is now 50% contained, and firefighters successfully protected all homes. While some barns and outbuildings were damaged or destroyed, all lives and homes were saved. Power has also been restored to most of the community.

Fire departments are working hard to protect homes as high winds continue to spread the Crooked Creek fire in Old Fort tonight.

@moaleck Glad to hear you are safe, Montana. These pictures are really quite breathtaking and shocking - I was wondering if the Citizen Times could use one of them for an update on the containment of the fire? Let me know. Thanks.

@JamesHu27192912 Wow. Is this up in Banner Elk? Pretty wild and great view!

@ReemsLandreth Hey Reems. Feel free to use anything I post related to the fires.

I’ve had a few people reach out asking for an interview or updates. Similar to Helene, everyone on our road is without power and I have very limited service.
Fire continues to spread. 0% contained and more than 150 acres burned. Multiple mandatory evacuations underway.

Old Fort and WNC can’t catch a break. Out of control wildfire here in the Crooked Creek community. Flames are about 1/4 mile from my house. Evacuations underway.

@moaleck Hope you're staying safe and OK out there. Just curious, did you take this photo? If so, can Fox News Network, LLC & Fox News Edge affiliates please use on all platforms w/ credit? Do we need anyone else’s permission?

@moaleck Hey, Montana. This is just awful. I hope you’re doing okay. I’m a meteorologist with WCCB Charlotte - would you be willing to chat with me today about what’s going on? We’re trying to get a story out on this.

@moaleck Hey Montana. I'm a reporter with the Asheville Citizen Times. I was wondering if we could use your photo with credit and permission for our coverage of the fire? Let me know. Thanks.
