‘Here’ being the East Coast. Good news, but it’s gonna get wet out:
Flooding from Hurricane Joaquin will impact areas from South Carolina to Massachusetts even though the hurricane is unlikely to make landfall in the United States.
[snip]
A copious amount of moisture will unload very heavy rainfall along parts of the Atlantic Seaboard and the Appalachians into early next week. Strong winds, coastal flooding and beach erosion will occur and could be very damaging even in the absence of a landfall.
Still, stock up. Just in case.
Yeah, we’ve had enough rain down here in NC, thanks. Forecast is still for a lot more, even if The Hurricane stays off the coast.
