Ophelia: Coming to a Coastline Near You?

Ophelia is still being downright unpredictable. Yesterday morning, most of the computer models agreed that she would turn around and hit South Carolina. Yesterday evening, most of them agreed that she would hit North Carolina. This morning, the predicted track is even further north. She may hit the northeast tip of NC, or she could just skim the coast as she turns slowly out to sea. Ophelia is only a category one (with only a small chance of strengthening), so even if she does make landfall, she'll quickly weaken. (The Outter Banks would probably get the worst of it) But it still means rain, rain, rain for NC, VA, and MD. When was the last time it rained around here? I think we need this one. Just so long as she doesn't stall. No Gaston repeats, please.
