WILMINGTON, NC. (THECOUNT) — Hurricane Florence likely will be far worse than previously thought, as the Wilmington region is expected to get “life-threatening” wind, storm surges, rain and flooding as it remains under a hurricane warning.
“Today is pretty much the last day for anyone to safely leave and evacuate,” Victoria Oliva, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service office in Wilmington, said Wednesday morning. “If you’re going to get out … get out.”
The storm, a category 4 hurricane, was about 575 miles southeast of Wilmington as of 7 a.m. Wednesday, according to a National Weather Service briefing. That updated briefing also shows the storm stalling over the Wilmington region longer than previously thought and delivering nearly 30 inches of rain to Wilmington, Pender County and Jacksonville. source
Tuesday’s forecasts showed rainfall amounts of about 10 inches for Wilmington and 20 inches for Pamlico County.
