Found it in an atlas yesterday. Looks relatively safe.
Not sure what to believe in the forecasts at the moment. NHC has it going
slightly north of due west after making landfall. GFS has it going south along
the coast towards Charleston, then drifting inland at a very slow ground speed.
That means a tremendous amound of rain for the Carolina coast with extreme
flooding in the low country.
The evening news is talking about rainfall amounts in terms of feet, as
much as 35 inches in Raleigh.
TS Isaac is no longer an issue.
