If Debby moves just a few miles to the left we’re going to get soaked. So far, the winds seem modest but the rains seem heavy. We’re in a good place that drains well right into the bay.

I’m sure this has been posted on these threads before, but I’d missed it. Wife just showed it to me. It’s 13 years old!

Disturbing rainfall estimates for the low country of SC/GA:

Yes... VERY disturbing. Here we are, still moving in, and with no experience on how to deal with this. Doing our best to prep. We may get the heck out of here if it looks like things will get really bad. Then again, we feel we need to stay if there's any damage to our house...

I don't like the uncertainty of the storm path. An official from Chatham County, GA (Savannah) just said the rainfall amounts predicted for this area are so unprecedented... "This could be a 1,000 year storm."

We could use rain here where I live, north of Harrisburg PA.

I’ve watched storm after storm track either north or south of us all summer long.

The trout stream in my back yard is woefully low.
