There is some damage in Raleigh.
Several schools are delaying tomorrow to see if water will recede in time. Flooding everywhere western piedmont into the foothills.

Waiting for that to make its way up here later but for some reason I'm just not as concerned as I was earlier. I guess maybe years of watching slow approaches fizzle as they.get here after dark has me leaning that way.

Dang, that's quite ominous. So, that's what they were talking about on channel 6 as I was trying to take some time to study and as it turns out my suspicions on that storm might have been right as soon as I looked away for a bit over 30 minutes.
Here's another view of the damage Brick just posted in North Raleigh

Ashe County Schools closed tomorrow due to the flu. Keep kids inside out of the rain and flood waters.

We are.
332 PM EST Thu Feb 6 2020
...A FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 800 PM EST FOR ALAMANCE...
FORSYTH...DAVIDSON...ORANGE...RANDOLPH...GUILFORD...CHATHAM AND
DURHAM COUNTIES...
At 326 PM EST...Doppler radar indicated persistent moderate rainfall
across the warned area. Up to three inches of rain have already
fallen, with up to an inch of additional rain possible through this
evening.
Local law enforcement report numerous impassable roadways
in Davidson County. In Greensboro, minor flood is being reported
along North and South Buffalo Creeks, and in Chapel Hill, Bolin
Creek is out of its banks.
This constant rain and thunder are impressive. And it just keeps coming. It's like someone is aiming a firehouse right at the Piedmont. Looks like it'll continue raining till around 2 am. I'd imagine that the evening commute in Charlotte is going to be just awful.
Tons of bridges washed out around here. Worst I’ve ever seen it in the upstate
the tight gradient is where the line of storms is currently at

Under a severe thunderstorm warning now, it's been getting darker by the minute.
Some 5” pixels starting to show up on Radarscope near my house
Surprised no High Risk was issued for flooding. There are flash flood emergencies now coming out of GSP.
Yadkin River 2 miles below my house. Mighty big river today!

Here comes the flooding for this area into the RDU corridor. Going to be a miserable rush hour
Raging water can be seen off i40/i77 in Iredell. All off the greenway is underwater and swift water is well into woods. Spooky. Can’t park anywhere as the parking lots are submerged.

Just started to rain hard again. Didn't even eclipse an inch last night but this rain total is sure to be interesting.
A lot of these cells have cloud tops exceeding 15-20,000 feet.
Getting some +lightning strikes and deep thunder here

Still raining here (go figure). Should be over 3 inches by 5. Yet to go out and see how the North Oconee River looks.
1 inch here since 3 1.91 storm total probably get to around 3-3.5
I’ve got two weather stations up, and they are usually within 2-3 tenths of each other. But so far today
Flow 4.47
Davis Vue 3.75
Big difference! Wish I had my Stratus out to see which one would be closest to it.

Any opinions on the 3km NAM showing heavy showers storms Friday 3am to 10am or is it being too aggressive? Schools have until 8am to further delay into 3 hour or shutdown.
We are sitting at 3.85 here since Midnight. I think you could have kayaked in my front yard today.
So far today: close to Uptown Charlotte and still raining .
