"This is a disaster area. It's not going to recover in 24 hours, and it's still going on as we speak, not only in Princeville but 150 miles from here," Gov. Pat McCrory said. "People are playing golf 20 miles from here, and yet we have a whole town under water." The aftermath of Matthew's deluge has caused normally tranquil rivers to swell to record levels.
