I'm an hour and a half from where it's supposed to directly hit. My town will undoubtedly be flooded very badly since a river runs through it, but luckily I live in an area away from the basin so water isn't as likely to build up here, although my neighborhood is still likely to flood to some degree as the rain keeps pouring. We're expecting over a foot.

My mom works at the hospital in Jacksonville NC which is much closer and it's mandatory for her to be there during the storm so she'll be in the thick of it. It's likely she won't even be able to get home for over a week after Florence has gone due to flooded roads.
