I’m sure our resident downcasters will be here shortly to accept their mea culpas. NOT.
Am here in central-East NC waiting for the rains to start. We are told 4-6 inches here in central NC but as your chart shows - major flooding rains down east.
We have also been told 35 MPH winds with gusts 45 to 50 MPH.
So, trees may be coming down all over. Power outages predicted.
I just hope Matthew definitely turns out to sea.
