飓风“伊萨亚斯”残余北上：北卡西部发洪水警戒，夏洛特NASCAR赛事延期
飓风“伊萨亚斯”（Isaias）残余环流10日继续北上，给北卡罗来纳州西部山区带来强降雨与大风。美国国家气象局格林维尔-斯帕坦堡办公室已对北卡西部发布高风警戒与大风警告，持续至10月11日（周日）上午8点；洪水警戒从10日上午8点持续至11日下午2点。
“伊萨亚斯”于10月9日（周五）晚9点半左右以二级飓风强度在佛罗里达州德斯廷附近登陆，持续风速达105英里/小时。至10日上午7点50分，风暴已减弱为热带低压。
国家气象局在社交媒体上说：“虽然‘伊萨亚斯’中心预计从我们西侧很远的地方经过，但热带水汽将影响本地区，给山区、山麓以及佐治亚东北部带来强降雨和可能的突发洪水，高海拔地区还会有很强的阵风。”（"Although the center of Isaias is forecast to pass well to our west, tropical moisture will impact our area, bringing heavy rainfall and potential flash flooding over the mountains, foothills, and northeast Georgia as well as very gusty winds, especially at high elevations."）
美国国家海洋和大气管理局天气预报中心预计，迎风坡地区降雨量可达3至5英寸，北卡最西部与南卡北部山区局部可达6至10英寸。气象部门表示，溪流与低洼地带可能出现轻微洪水，但大范围的突发洪水或干流中度洪水可能性不大。
登陆已造成大面积停电：阿拉巴马州南部与佛罗里达狭长地带超过56万户断电；截至10日上午7点，佐治亚州也有数万户停电。
强降雨还打乱了夏洛特赛车场的NASCAR赛事周末安排。卡车系列赛周五顺利完赛，但原定周六的O'Reilly汽车零部件系列赛推迟到周日举行；NASCAR杯赛美国银行400（Bank of America 400）定于周日下午3点开赛，O'Reilly系列赛在其后进行——但天气预报显示周日夏洛特降雨概率高达80%，周日的比赛仍可能受影响。
Isaias remnants bring flood watch to western North Carolina; Charlotte NASCAR races pushed to Sunday
Hurricane Isaias's remnants moved inland Saturday, bringing heavy rain and gusty winds to the mountains of western North Carolina. The National Weather Service office in Greenville-Spartanburg issued a high wind advisory and high wind warning for western North Carolina through 8 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 11, and a flood watch from 8 a.m. Saturday through 2 p.m. Sunday.
Isaias made landfall as a Category 2 hurricane near Destin, Florida, around 9:30 p.m. ET on Friday, Oct. 9, with sustained winds of 105 mph. By 7:50 a.m. Saturday, it had dissipated into a tropical depression.
"Although the center of Isaias is forecast to pass well to our west, tropical moisture will impact our area, bringing heavy rainfall and potential flash flooding over the mountains, foothills, and northeast Georgia as well as very gusty winds, especially at high elevations," the weather service said in a social media post.
NOAA's Weather Prediction Center forecast 3 to 5 inches of rain across upslope regions from northeast Georgia into the upstate of South Carolina and western North Carolina, with maximum totals of 6 to 10 inches across far western North Carolina into the Upstate of South Carolina. Forecasters said nuisance to minor flooding was possible along streams and low-lying areas, though widespread flash flooding or moderate river flooding was unlikely.
The storm knocked out power broadly: more than 560,000 outages were reported across southern Alabama and the Florida Panhandle after landfall, and tens of thousands of outages were reported in Georgia as of 7 a.m. Saturday.
Heavy rain also disrupted the NASCAR weekend at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The Truck series race ran Friday, but Saturday's O'Reilly Auto Parts series race was postponed to Sunday; the NASCAR Cup Series Bank of America 400 is scheduled for 3 p.m. ET Sunday, with the O'Reilly race to follow — though the forecast called for an 80 percent chance of rain in Charlotte on Sunday.
