Hurricane Debby

I’ve been concerned about the Fayetteville/Ft Liberty area, especially for very heavy rain, as I have family there. Check out these 11PM conditions

FORT LIBERTY HVY RAIN 77 75 94 NE16G22 29.64F VSB 1

FAYETTEVILLE RAIN 77 74 90 NE31G52 29.61F FOG

Is that really gusts to 52 at Fayetteville? Wow!

I am about 10 miles north of Fayetteville and it is a blowing rain, don’t know about 52mph wind but 40s believable for sure. This will add up fast!

Typical coastal/ENC footprint. At least this time we don’t have to argue where the Rain/snow line is going to set up. A lot of rain for the triangle. I’ll be shocked if my area (GSP) picks up those 2-3” numbers TWC is talking about. That just isn’t how these things normally shake out.

And like clockwork the NWS has backed me down to 0.25” expected rainfall. Imagine my shock
 
I want to outperform this. Storms like these are why the rainfall averages for a lot of eastern NC are skewed so high in the 30 year averages, even here in Raleigh it’s a bit skewed because of em

Those of us in the middle of it don't want to outperform any of it.

Fortunately I am in the northern part of the county, far away from any rivers and on higher ground, but yeah after two terrible floods, I would be wanting to get out of that zone.
