This one could be a big one for folks along the southeast coast, especially South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia. This is actually similar to Hurricane Sandy in that there is a tropical storm interacting with a deep trough. Could be a ton of rain more inland closer to the mountains. And there will be a very tight pressure gradient between a strong high pressure near the great lakes and the strong tropical low pressure. So we're looking at very high winds and a lot of rain. The saving grace is that the tidal surge likely won't be near as bad as it was in Sandy. But the risk for coastal and inland flooding and wind damage will be there.
