1.75-4 inches of rain up here where I am already...not from Ernesto, just RA+ near the boundary.

A mudslide has closed a road near me, we're under a flash flood warning and a car has driven into a house hydroplaning off the road.

Doppler estimates piling up tonight...ENC 3-6 inches as of 11:30PM. Generally, 24 hour FFG is ~4.5 inches so this does not bode well for what's going to happen in VA/NC on Thursday and Friday.

Ain't gonna be fun :roll:

strangely... here in miami lakes (west dade county almost everglades...) i only got .74 inches the day ernesto hit, and .23 inches today.
Almost 1 inch of rain.

i don't know, but the 'heavy' rain never materialized

Stay safe!!!

No flooding reported so far in Norfolk. I'll check the local news at noon for ya. NE North Carolina, on the other hand, had 7.3 inches in the last 24 hours.
