You've got up to 18" more rain coming...

The eye has only recently moved out of NC and into southern VA near Norfolk. You're only getting the very far outer edges of the storm at this time because it's still hundreds of miles away.

You have a good 10-11 [more] hours before the eye gets to you.

But...since some people think this hurricane is all hype go outside and have fun because it's Saturday night.
