Anyone remember Hurricane Fran? This is setting up to be worse....

11. A little concerned

I'm near Raleigh which is about 2 hours inland from the coast. The forecast looks bad but a lot of times things end up not being as bad as they say it will, especially this far out. I remember the "Storm of the Century" a few years back that was supposed to devastate New York. That said, if the forecast turns out to be accurate then we are going to have some big problems here. We've had a lot of rain over the past few weeks and the ground is already saturated. They are saying that it might even stall out over central NC for over a day which could be catastrophic. 10 inches of rain on what we've already had will cause a lot of trees to fall down. I remember Fran in 96 which was pretty bad but this one has the potential to be much worse.
