We are about 2 hours inland and thus far no real effects seen. It is cloudy today, but I am unsure how much influence she has upon that.
If she follows the predicted course, we stand to get a fair amount of rain, but nothing too major unless significant strengthening occurs.

Anthony.
Is it hot and humid?
Jan B and I were in Willmington NC (Shell Island Wrightsville Beach), a few years ago when a hurricane was about 50 miles off shore and moving slightly Northeast. What an experience that was for us.
We just don't get those sort of things here in Eastern Montana

Thanks to all for the well wishes. Jim, the humidity is not as bad as it has been lately. We were in Wrightsville Beach this weekend and it was great although very windy (I think it was unrelated to Ophelia)
It has rained a bit today and they predict much more over the next 2 days.

Randy, my SO, lives on Ocracoke and left yesterday AM on the first ferry. His principal says most likely no school this week. Suzie lives just west of Ophelia's path, but she's on the Navigator right now. I'm 45 minutes west of Anthony, just on the edge, so I should be fine.
Thanks for your concern.

Let's hope we do not get too much rain. We just had a large amount of sod put in our yard and I would hate to see it float away!!!!

Just a bit of rain.. nothing major. Our sod made it through without floating into the road. We really had it easy, but the further toward the coast had a bit more to worry about with the flooding and rain.

Glad to hear that your weather wasn't that bad. At least you didn't have to water your sod this week!

Randy called Ocracoke last night and heard the flooding was minimal. We hope his "beach place" is in good shape. Keep your fingers crossed. Some in the southern part of NC weren't as lucky as pokey Ophelia lingered.
