Computer models take Florence straight to the Carolina coastline, but then they differ a little bit on where it will make landfall.
FOX 13 meteorologist Dave Osterberg says “A Category 4 storm making landfall in the Carolinas could produce a 15- to 20-foot storm surge.”
Once Florence moves inland, there will be another problem. It will most likely stall. That could mean prolonged rains and flooding.
