It might get me some time off of work. I work in a building not too far from Crabtree Creek.

All of the models are showing some rainfall totals I haven't seen in Wake County since Florence in 2016 and Matthew in 2018. Thank God the impacts from wind should be minimal in our area.

While the totals are impressive its the footprint of how large of a area sees those kind of totals that worry me.

Tornadoes starting to spin up in eastern NC and SC.
Glad KRAX is down

If you add up the maximum totals from the detailed forecast page from the NWS at Raleigh for Wake County you come up with a total of 11.25 inches of rain. That seems reasonable at this point. Southern sections of the state nearer the coast are probably looking at twenty inches or more in some spots.

Here's the morning briefing from KRDU for those who are interested on Tropical Storm Debby

Rgem is still sticking to its guns with some areas in/near the Triangle at 15+". 3k is pretty steep too.
So this storm is throwing wrenches at people all up and down the eastern coast. I'm suppose to go to Ft. Lauderdale starting this Thursday (driving down from Maine with dogs) for a last minute vacation....Saw the 11am updated cones of Debby....We are waiting til Sunday now to ensure that the people in the south can get what they need without more tourists driving through.
I truly hope there is no more loss of life and minimal damage from this storm, people need a break and not more trauma right now. Ya'll are really awesome at what you do and how useful your information is, even while living in Maine!
Stay Safe!

There is a very real possibility parts of 95 in southern NC will be shut down for some time after this so keep your eyes on that. That area does not handle this type of water well.
Just got hit with that first batch out in Rocky Mount on a maintenance run. WPC keeps nudging that 10-15” up inland.
Tweeted this earlier, but RDU/greenville both have their wettest past 30 days on record coming into this. Lumberton 4th, Florence SC 8th. It won’t take long for stuff to rise

It's back up now but it was down earlier
Drove over the Little Pee Dee earlier and the boat ramp at Fork Retch is still under water. 15” of rain in the catchment may very well put SC9 under water at Dillon and Nichols on the Lumber River, I95 at Lumberton too. US74 will most likely have issues as well around Boardman.
US501 at Conway just barely stayed open during Matthew and Florence.

God bless you. Exactly what I been looking for,for 2 days. Very very helpful. Appreciate you passing along.
Useful tool for those in NC. You can see flood gauges for a lot of the smaller creeks as well.
First rain from Debby. Let's go!
Have to wonder if the system is going to be a little susceptible to a bit of convective tugging the next 24 hours or so as it gets back over the water. If this was the gfs of the old days I would 100% say that's what's pulling it way west you can see the convective enhancement on the qpf plots and how the low follows that. I think the worst thing that can happen for much of nc is this gets far enough off shore that it can start rebuilding itself north and NE of the center. That will point a firehouse off of the Atlantic right into the state similar to the 3k and Canadian outputs

Radar images show the eye of Debby on the Georgia coast moving at a snail's pace towards open water and the last one showed what might be storms starting to wrap around the center again
