Let's hope it doesn't "realize it's potential" & underwhelms everyone... But if I was anywhere near where it might land, I'd be taking all warnings seriously.
Prolonged heavy rain can mean mud-slides along with flooding...very dangerous, not worth the risk of sticking around IMO. Let's HOPE it weakens considerably.

Here's a good tip to share regarding food safety, yours and the snakes! (I've been aware of this but in case you're not?):
Shiela Pulanco Russell of Lumberton, North Carolina, took to Facebook in October 2016 to share a useful tip for those evacuating their homes during Hurricane Matthew.
"For those of you that are evacuating from the coast, I just heard a great tip. It's called the one cup tip. You put a cup of water in your freezer. Freeze it solid and then put a quarter on top of it and leave it in your freezer," Russell wrote at the time.
"That way when you come back after you've been evacuated you can tell if your food went completely bad and just refroze or if it stayed Frozen while you were gone."
"If the quarter has fallen to the bottom of the cup that means all the food defrosted and you should throw it out," she continued. "But if the quarter is either on the top or in the middle of the cup then your food may still be ok."

Flo's predicted track has turned further south over the last few hours so Virginia will likely be wet but otherwise ok. NC and SC are going to get hammered, especially along the coastline, since the storm is slowing as it approaches. The eastern parts of the Carolinas could experience well over 48 hours of hurricane-force winds and rain.

I'm glad to see that at least the wind speeds have significantly lowered, but there's still a lot of water to deal with...stay safe, all.

We're really not in for anything worse than a typical summer storm. By Sunday Flo is supposed to be a tropical depression centered in GA, then over Mon-Tue it's going to come north/northeast and head up to New England. The mountains will break it up pretty well.
The Carolinas are getting hammered because that eye is going to stall and ride the coastline for the next 36 hours before moving inland, just like Katrina did. Between the storm surge and the rain that area will see a LOT of water.
