Triad Floods Shut Down Major Routes | Winston–Salem News

Torrential rains dumped nearly four inches overnight across the Triad and surrounding areas, triggering flash floods, downed trees, and widespread road closures. With another 2-3 inches forecasted today, the deluge shows no sign of slowing. Major routes like Route 52 Northbound near Pilot Mountain and Route 49 Northbound in Surry County are completely underwater, impacting multiple counties. Residents in low-lying areas — especially Reidsville — are urged to stay vigilant as drainage systems buckle. Motorcyclists and all travelers are advised to seek alternate routes as DOT offers no reopening timeline. Stay safe, stay informed, and plan your moves wisely.
