LOL!!! There is a good stretch of the coast that actually really needs the rain - including where I live......rain is one thing a 'cane is another.
Up here in NY and New England, we’ve already had a rain-soaked August. Also, we’re going to be right at the monthly high tide peak. Combine that with the way the surge gets compacted in and around NY and that she’s a relatively slow-moving hurricane and even a weak category 1 could deliver as much flooding as a category 4, they’re saying.
