Quick Tuesday night hit...

Fay will emerge off of the Florida coast tonight, and I expect this will have some steady strengthening in the 24 hours that follow. The system will then head back west toward the coast and make yet another landfall....this time in northern Florida or possibly as far north as Georgia. I don't expect a direct hit for the Carolina coast, but certainly some rough surf and the threat of spin-off tornadoes in the outer rain bands.

For the Piedmont, again, a lot of the rain will miss us, but Fay's remnants will be meandering around for many days...maybe at some point we can get some of the rain up our way.
