Original Note:
Flooding in the NC mountains was not caused by global warming, but rather by orographic lifting. Orographic precipitation is the scientific result of weather systems moving across mountains, causing excessive rain. https://earthweb.ess.washington.edu/roe/GerardWeb/Publications_files/Roe_OrogPrec_AnnRev05.pdf https://www.henrysfork.org/post/what-is-orographic-precipitation https://study.com/academy/lesson/orographic-effect-definition-lesson-quiz.html
