In this image I'm at the spot marked Steve. Have a strong couplet that missed me by 2 or 3 miles now to my NW and a new one a few miles to my SE. Not strong and havent heard of any damage but dodging rotations at the moment.

WRAL said radar was showing debris near Fountain in Wilson County.
 
Well I ended up with 3.47 inches… a bit more than the NWS forecast, but not as crazy as the 5-6 inches some of those HRRR runs were spitting out. Now to see how we do with thunderstorms the next few days… I’ve got at least a 40 percent chance the next 5 days.
 
Most unrelenting rain shield the Triangle has had from a tropical system in quite some time. Started raining at 8am and hasn’t abated for even a minute since. 2.46” and the heaviest rain of the day ongoing,
 
The center gonna pass very close to you. My pressure bottomed out 1007.3 and looking at the NHC plots the center passed about 8 miles east of me
Yeah going to be close my wind is S now and down to 1007.9 don't think I'll get much lower
 
Legit hooked out super over no man's land Hyde Co. Passing right over the prison on the west end of Lake Mattmuskeet

The storm drains in Raleigh off lake Boone trail were backed up and water was gushing out of them not in.
 
Looks like the rain is almost over here and the skies will soon begin to heal.

My extremely accurate barometer (recorded 941mb in the eye of Hurricane Hugo in Summerville, SC) seems to have bottomed out at 1006.9mb (29.73 inches).

1006.6 min pressure at the house. Wind is starting to get some west component so it should start to rise

Center must've passed right over your house. According to NHC coordinates it's now over Henderson which seems that path is about right.
