@c_vandergriff @theodenjanes Hi friend!!! Thank you. And love you too! ❤️❤️❤️

@NWS This video isn't fake. I'm the videographer that captured it. It happened in Columbia, SC in 2015 and it's a great example of why people shouldn't drive over flooded roads.

[Kristen Hampton WBTV @KHamptonWBTV]

This is from the Columbia floods of 2015. This is why you don't drive through flooded roads. I covered 5 deaths from that storm. All 5 drove through flooded roads. Please just don't. Please.

LOOK WHAT HAPPENED SECONDS AFTER A TRUCK DROVE THRU

[Kristen Hampton WBTV @KHamptonWBTV]

@ScottHambrook Thanks for the advice Scott, but if you investigate my work, I think you'll find you missed the point too ❤️️

[Kristen Hampton WBTV @KHamptonWBTV]

Wow. Serious storms rolling in!

[Kristen Hampton WBTV @KHamptonWBTV]

@susantran Wow! Thanks girl!

Just heard a cracking and saw this tree fall into the Catawba River. We're safely away from other trees. Definitely worth noting the ground is completely saturated and more trees will fall. Please stay safe. #ncwx

[Kristen Hampton WBTV @KHamptonWBTV]

Hard to believe this view of the Catawba River in Marion is actually way down from just 13 hours ago

Stewart Creek in west Charlotte is up over Morehead. Continuing to rise.

10 minute difference on 321 in Blowing Rock.

[Kristen Hampton WBTV @KHamptonWBTV]

And just as soon as I cleared my 5:30 liveshot, sleet turned to wet snow in Blowing Rock. We're here live throughout the morning in @wbtvstorm3

@Rod_Kendrick That's the funny thing about GoPro video. If you're crawling at a parade's pace, it still looks like you're trying to bring home a Daytona trophy. Those roads were pretty slick so I wasn't going a hair over 25 or 30

[Kristen Hampton WBTV @KHamptonWBTV]

I took this about 20 minutes ago. The drive back towards Blowing Rock is starting to really improve now. Sun is even peeking out. Still BRUTALLY cold.
