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.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers’ Biggest Roster Needs

      By NAS · Posted

      BPA in draft all the way. Address your biggest needs in free agency.

      Exactly.  You let him play out next season and continue to develop Thorton.  Jackson’s earned his next contract, but his age and the risk of tying up such a large portion of the payroll at one position leads me to believe that we’ll let him walk. In all likelihood, we’ll draft another CB, or two, and bring in some journeymen to fill the roster void, between now and the start of the 2027 season.  That’ll create more balance financially across the roster enabling us to invest in other areas.

      I’m just not impressed with these hires/openings

      By strato · Posted

      As far as the NFCS … I think this division will be hotly contested the next couple of years.   I am tending to pay more respect to both Atlanta and the Saints n terms of how strong they will be moving forward, than not.    I am mixed on Ryan but think they have a decent roster to start with. I don’t think he blundered hiring Stefanski. And that offense can be dangerous with a QB. Plus, defense is arrow up. No 1st round pick, WB issues will dull their effectiveness. Question is, to what degree?   I think Moore is going to be a good HC and can overcome tape that people have on Shough. They need a lot but they were playing with people. Just the way you want to see all the way to the end.    Not sure about Tampa they have Mayfield but I don’t think they can maintain their success and Bowles is not going to last much longer. They have to go through all that. Gonna be tough once it starts. Might already have started.    For us I feel pretty good about Morgan. But less so about our offense, we have some short term RB and OL issues and those things are critical given what we are working with at QB.  Overall, mixed. Like a lot of what I see but some major question marks remain.
