6 inches. some spots could pick up 8, even 10 inches of rain before this is said and done. so you have some significant impacts here still to go even for areas way away from the coast. you have this excessive rainfall risk. all the areas in red, including columbia, south carolina, wilmington, north carolina, again, folks, cities nowhere sneer the florida coastline are going to have this significant potential for heavy rainfall and subsequent flooding as we go through the next couple of days. so do keep that in mind. we did see in the latest update at the top of the hour winds decreased to 120 miles per hour. it is still a very strong category 3 storm. the forward movement north-northeast at 18 miles per hour. so it s going to make its way across the state and into georgia and the carolinas as we go through the next several hours. remarkable it could be a category 2 hurricane according to forecasts as it heads into georgia. allison chinchar, you have been keeping us posted.
