The 5:00 PM NHC forecast track illustrates slowed forward movement following landfall. This can result in catastrophic rainfall. Previously, the storm track predicted rapid inland progress, with Florence still boasting hurricane winds inland around Cumberland County (Fayetteville). While slower forward motion decays inland wind speed, the rain potential for destructive flooding is drastically increased.

Well, that forecast will have even an old heathen like me prayin' they have it wrong :-\

In central PA it seems we've had little else but rain all summer, but nothing like what they're talking about here.

Thanks for the reply & info.
Always learn a learn a thing or two on your storm threads .. my main problem is remembering them ;-)
