Potential for heavy, heavy rains and possibly hurricane force wind gusts according to the 12z GFS.
So probably without power for a week. I’ll keep everyone updated

Too close to the Santee. The Santee used to be the second biggest outflow of water on the east coast prior to the creation of Lake Murray and Lake Moultrie. It receives the absolute majority of central NC water that isn't directed down the Pee-Dee. Not a good situation. It will crest.
In that case, Florence, SC might be a decent* spot.
*Decent in the sense that a single guy staging to move in for insurance adjustments should be reasonably safe. I wouldn't bring my family to Florence just yet.

that would be quite optimistic... could be complete coastal devastation.

Wonder if a call gets made early this week on some games. Especially if some of the state is being ravaged while it happens.
With Auburn being only a couple states away from the projected landfall, it might be wise to move the game to Baton Rouge.

The GFS isn't coupled to the sea surface, therefore it produces unrealistic results in situations like this. If the system approaches the Outer Banks and then does an cyclonic loop before moving inland, it would be much weaker than the 12z GFS is showing. The combo of up welling of the shallow shelf waters and interaction with land would likely cause significant weakening before the system could move back inland.

Wilmington is going to be washed away if it gets feet of rain, plus storm runoff from further upstream and storm surge backing up the flow.

i was thinking the same stuff.

Auburn is garbage, but they're not Florida levels of utter trash.

I would think the upwelling would be negated some by the constant flow of warm water from the gulf stream.

Mah dude. Good maps, that what I was trying to type out, I was just too lazy too look up the drainage basins.

Said this earlier but I have an old friend who lives there now. RT3 knows him too but probably doesn’t realize it. I’ve convinced him to leave either tonight or tomorrow.

A lot of the issues with the 2015 flooding in Columbia was because of man-made, under-maintained dams that broke.
I'd avoid the area below Columbia along the Congaree River near Congaree NP; however, the Broad and Saluda rivers (which form the Congaree) are fed from western North Carolina. If the worst of the storm remains in central to eastern NC, Columbia flooding shouldn't really be an issue.

Possibly some but I don't know enough about the Gulf Stream flow rates and what kind of mixing the approach of a Cat 4/5 would do to the near surface temps in the short run.

Good stuff. Also with Hurricane Juaquin in 2015, we got 28" of rain on the coast, had a break in the weather for 2 days, and then they opened the spillways on both dams, flooding the coast a second time. Charleston always has to pick up Columbia trash
