This was a storm that developed in the Gulf and is moving up along the
coast, not an uncommon occurrence -- it is not an Atlantic storm (which
come across from Africa). It is a minimal TS, it will rain a lot, maybe
blow a bit, but just matter of course here on the fringe.
I am more worried that it is a new moon high tide, +6.7 here tonight and
tomorrow night which is higher than "normal" so if there is any surge
there will be a lot of flooding. Charleston will probably be kayak
territory tomorrow as it floods on spring tides, and if there is any
rain at all, nowhere near 4 or 5" it will be flooded all over the place.
Here on the marsh we will likely get some very high tides, last night we
had about 2" of rain and it is wet out there at low tide now from all
the runoff. The breeze is freshening a bit and it is starting to
sprinkle a bit, most will be moving in later tonight, and might
strengthen a bit as it gets to the east coast and gets more warm and
moisture off the water.

I agree. We seldom get June heavy rains in the mid Atlantic.
