It's not often you find people wishing for a tropical storm landfall in their area, however I'm sure that's exactly what the folks on the NC coast are doing right now.

With much of the coast under worse drought conditions that we are, choosing between continuing the drought or dealing with a tropical storm landfall (possibly a cat. 1 hurricane) seems like not a bad deal. I would sure love to see that rain!

 Unfortunatly, Gabrielle's current track doesn't seem to include us here in the Triad with much, if any, rain. So I wish everyone down on the coast the best of luck in dealing with the storm, and I hope you enjoy that rain!

They got more than 7.5 inches of rain in Morehead City. Some of our beaches were nearing 20 inches below normal. However, normal for that part of the state is near 60 inches while the Triad averages around 43 inches.
