* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- The remnants of Tropical Storm Chantal will bring widespread
showers and embedded storms across central North Carolina
through early Monday. The latest guidance suggests a stripe
of 1 to 3 inches, with locally 4 or more inches, is possible
across the Piedmont and Sandhills, with the highest totals
expected along and west of US Highway 1. This rainfall may
result in flash flooding. Given some continued uncertainty in
the exact track of Chantal and its precipitation footprint,
the watch includes portions of the Coastal Plain.
