Coastal storm ... no, an inland storm now
The low-pressure system is well inland this morning, centered over northern South Carolina with its telltale swirl on radar. Roanoke is on the northern fringe of the system's northernmost band of showers. As the day progresses, the low will slowly drift northwest into western North Carolina and showers and steadier rain will inch farther northward. The storm is expected to linger through tonight and into much of Saturday as it ever so slowly moves north and then northeast. The rain probably won't be torrential but more showery with a heavy spurt or two. The National Weather Service in Blacksburg is projecting 1 to 2 inches of rain over most of the area through Saturday evening.
