Coastal Georgia, Eastern SC and Eastern NC - get ready- this is aiming to be a very slow moving soaker- characteristics of Matthew or Florence a few years back.  Possible catastrophic flooding

Ventusky - Wind, Rain and Temperature Maps

from NOAA 5AM advisory 

Across portions of southeast Georgia, the coastal plain of South
Carolina, and southeast North Carolina, 10 to 20 inches of rainfall,
with local amounts to 30 inches, are expected through Saturday
morning.  This potentially historic rainfall will likely result in
areas of catastrophic flooding.

lol i need to get my grass mowed.

no rain yesterday but i fell asleep in my recliner and missed the small window of cool before dark.

every other day last week when i'd get home from work and try to rush out there and mow it would start storming. 

i heard there was going to be about 6" of rain dumping in winston area with the hurricane coming.

I guess here in SE NC we might get to see how wise it was for the various county " planning" boards and county commissioners to let out of state developers come in and clear cut/bulldoze thousands of acres of wetland and put up thousands of housing units while allowing for storm water retention for 25 year storms ( which wouldn't even handle an above normal year of precip).  Friggin idiots.

Prepare for them to claim it's another 100 year flood. We've only had two of those the last couple decades or so.

 I have seen 4 big flood storms in the last 30 years in Eastern NC that I can think of off hand - Fran, Floyd, Mathew and Florence-  the climatologists have said this sort of lingering storm is going to become more and more frequent with AGW- and guess what?  It makes absolutely no sense to me to keep tempting fate with development where development should not be allowed.   I guess there is too much money to be fleeced off unsuspecting newcomers to do any different.

brace yourselves on the eastern part of the state. looks like it could be bad out y'alls way.

Right now, the projected track has it moving up the middle of the state, although the heaviest rain might be on the eastern side.  I know in the Triad the weather guessers are calling for about a 95% chance of rain on Friday.

I have a friend from New Zealand who is on a 90 day visa, driving all over the eastern United States. He was here for a few days, trapped with some medical issues as well as the crazy rain when he wanted to get to the hickory air Museum. Bit later now, he drove to Charleston just as the weather was starting to get bad and then decided for some reason to head up the coast to Wilmington. I think his brain is still on the other side of the planet or something.

      Everything revolves around Bryce This Year

      One thing I will say is you always have to get in the last word and keep repeating yourself as if that makes you right. Since Bryce and Canales are on the same page and this pffensive scheme us designed for Bryce uour round peg argument is off base as well. But don't let that stop you since it hasn't in the past. Unless you can say something new or use facts and expert opinions to back up your comments as I have, I am done.  You clearly have nothing to add to the conversation but the same circular comments which are simply your unsupported opinions. I don't have time to waste going back and forth. Carry on.

      since this a Thielen thread, here's my 2 cents....Mentoring is one thing, but could there've been bad advice also. Not saying he purposely told Young bad advice but not all advice is good. Look at that Raiders game, before that Thielen was clearly upset with Young(hence his benching) but Thielen got hurt, Young came back better. N we really didn't beat the Raiders(they beat themselves, there was a bit of anarchy going on remember, D.Adams perform a coup)    Just like Young first yr, the coaches (Frank) wanted to sabotage Young(hence the fastest hire n fire coach in history proves that.  Young is a good seed we planting but we first have to get rid of the bad apples. Thielen saw his time coming to an end and wanted to leave n go home.    Just like Renfrow, slow, n sorry but I'm so glad we don't have to hear about his comeback story every time we play. Thielen was reliable, but we need speed. And he beat up, still has lingering injury issue, oh but ya'll didn't know that(or maybe u do if u look at the details of his trade). Dan just got him off the books and got some capital, GREAT JOB DAN...btw Morgan push for Young over CJ, and it's no coincidence Canales was picked to coach Young up. At the end of the day, with Tmac, XL, Coker(probably will break some of Smitty's records except the triple crown but if he does oh boy). Coker needs to be on the field. He couldn't with Thielen in the picture.
