Thought I would create a thread for those of us well inland who will be impacted by Isaac. The storm will be much weaker, but impacts will be felt far far from the coast (albeit much less).

Below is the HPC latest rainfall estimate:

There's also a cold front heading down from the Dakotas. He will merge with it in the midwest and be enhanced in terms of rainfall. Certainly needed in this region, just hope not too much too fast.
