Nicole: Tornado, flood threats in Carolinas [Ep. 430]

What this episode covers

What will remain of Hurricane Nicole is forecast to bring heavy rain and gusty winds to North Carolina and South Carolina late Thursday, Friday, and into the first part of Saturday. The biggest impact from the storm will be scattered tornadoes and flooding, which will be brought on by both heavy rains and high tides.  Along the coast, the storm surge could cause flooding along Carolina shortlines. Heavy rains are expected across the Carolinas, but especially at the coast and in the higher elevations of the western North Carolina foothills and mountains. Regardless of the storm's name and classification, the impacts for the Carolinas will remain likely the same despite the storm's weakening from a hurricane to a tropical storm or tropical depression. Across the Carolinas, the Carolina Weather Group provides forecast analysis and explanation to help you better understand what to expect from the storm.
