I am in Wilmington, NC. Does anyone have any information on whether or not to evacuate? I can’t find out anything online.

No. The storm might make cat 3 by the time it hits FL but will weaken over land. It won't be a hurricane by the time it gets to NC although the NWS will say it still is based on cherry picked winds. Your winds will be 40-50 sustained, maybe gusts to 70. Some trees might fall on power lines so be prepared for that.

Just checked Wilmington NWS and they are downgrading all the threats (e.g. tornado, surge) but keeping the flood threat. But they keep saying this: it's not Florence, It's not going to stall.

Hopefully it will quickly go back in the Atlantic instead of in the Appalachians and dump a ton of rain there.
