I have been to NC three or four times a year since 1978. What appears to me is that there could be a lot of flooding days or even weeks after the storm as freshwater runoff hits the numerous streams and rivers that pocket the state.Could really get bad in some areas,IMHO.
Per FNC: Authorities in New Bern, N.C., tell Fox News that at least 150 people were stranded early Friday as the Category 1 storm makes its way to landfall. A city official said some residents have reported being in chest-high levels of water.
