Sinkholes! Sorry, that just slipped out. Sinkholes freak me out, so Mr. Owl is constantly finding little news stories about them to show me. Sometimes he's like a mean older brother even though I'm the older one. lol

We are kind of the same way here only with sand.... heavy rain either just skates along the surface and runs down to the Lake, or sinks in, so no ponding to make its way into your home foundation.

I have a friend who lives on a SC barrier island. She's a parrot rescuer and has 31 macaws, plus assorted others from budgies on up. She spent the weekend in a rented cargo van, moving all her guys inland to various friends' homes till this blows over. Their problem there is the causeway to the mainland floods and then they are trapped on the island, usually w/o power for days or even weeks.

Good move on her part. My opinion so far is that it's going to be a little more rough along the coastline of SC & NC.

As usual, the NC Outer Banks where I vacation is right in the bullseye for a Cat 3.

Place is a hurricane magnet.

Yup. Those are well-seasoned folks up there when it comes to storms.
Looks like they'll have another mess to clean up after this one.
 
DisneyWorld, Legoland and other Orlando tourist parks close as Dorian nears Florida

"Hurricane Dorian is dangerously close to the East Central Florida coast and sustained tropical force winds are forecasted to impact portions of Orange County as early as tomorrow afternoon. A slight fluctuation westward by the storm could bring those tropical storm winds to all of Orange County," according to an Orlando International Airport statement posted Monday.



The storm prompted Orlando International Airport to cease operations early Tuesday, with the airport also urging travelers to find lodging elsewhere, saying it is "not a shelter."
Tropical storm conditions were forecast for Tuesday night and Wednesday in Orange County, Florida, where Disney, Universal, SeaWorld and reside.
