Not much has changed since our last post regarding Hurricane Idalia. According to Mike Maze, Meteorologist at WRAL, “The rain from Idalia is moving in and initially it won't be too heavy but that will change overnight as it will increase in intensity. Some of the rain will be heavy at times with flash flooding a good bet in many locations in our southern counties where up to 3-5" of rain is possible. Winds initially this evening won't be too strong, but they will increase overnight as well with gusts ranging from 30-45 mph. We could see spotty power outages overnight, so make sure your devices are charged up.”
