As the City of Greenville, located in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin in Eastern North Carolina, deals with rising water in the Tar River, below are images that document the impact of the flooding in the city. The Tar River is located to the north of Greenville flowing west to east, dividing the city into a lower elevation north side and higher elevation south side. Most of the flooding impacts are in the floodplain areas immediately south of the Tar River and to the floodplain areas in the north.\u00a0The first set of images below were taken on Monday, October 10, 2016 between 10:00am-11:30am, BEFORE the water in the Tar River had crested. According to NOAA, the Tar River was initially projected to crest at 26.1 feet, which was later revised to 24.5 feet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenville-Map.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"427\" class=\"size-full wp-image-207\" alt=\"greenville-map\" src=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenville-Map.jpg\" srcset=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenville-Map.jpg 500w, http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenville-Map-300x256.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a>Map of Greenville<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img alt=\"noaa-projection\" src=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/NOAA-Projection.png\" \/><br \/>\nOctober 14, 2016: River Stage Projections for the Tar River<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>BEFORE THE TAR RIVER CRESTED (Monday, October 10, 2016)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">VIDEO:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/WvekI93uGZY\">Tar River Flooding After Hurricane Matthew<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenway_DogPark_Oct10_2016.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"595\" class=\"size-full wp-image-212\" alt=\"greenway_dogpark_oct10_2016\" src=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenway_DogPark_Oct10_2016.jpg\" srcset=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenway_DogPark_Oct10_2016.jpg 1000w, http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenway_DogPark_Oct10_2016-300x178.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a>October 10, 2016: Dog park at Greenville greenway.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenway_01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"402\" class=\"size-full wp-image-219\" alt=\"greenway_01\" src=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenway_01.jpg\" srcset=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenway_01.jpg 1000w, http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Greenway_01-300x120.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a>October 10, 2016: Greenville greenway trail underwater, only the information boards are visible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Town-Commons_03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"303\" class=\"size-full wp-image-222 alignleft\" alt=\"town-commons_03\" src=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Town-Commons_03.jpg\" srcset=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Town-Commons_03.jpg 1000w, http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Town-Commons_03-300x90.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a>October 10, 2016: Greenville Town Commons from the Greene street bridge.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Town-Commons_04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"436\" class=\"size-full wp-image-224 alignleft\" alt=\"town-commons_04\" src=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Town-Commons_04.jpg\" srcset=\"http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Town-Commons_04.jpg 1000w, http:\/\/anuradha.net\/wp-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Town-Commons_04-300x130.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a>October 10, 2016: Tar River flooding at the Town Commons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BEFORE THE TAR RIVER CRESTED (Monday, October 10, 2016) Hurricane Matthew has cut a wide swath of damage and flooding in the state of North Carolina.
