In the tropics, Potential Tropical Cyclone # 8 came ashore in the Carolinas on Monday afternoon, and it ran out of time to develop into a tropical storm. However, it has already brought more than a foot of rain and serious flooding to portions of coastal North Carolina and up to 8 inches elsewhere in the region. While this system moves north and weakens, it will bring heavy rain to portions of the Mid-Atlantic states during the next few days.
