Tropical storm Ophelia could slam mid-Atlantic states

23/9/2023 6:19
        A tropical storm off the mid-Atlantic coast began dumping rain on parts of North Carolina on Friday and will likely bring more precipitation along with high winds and storm surges to parts of Virginia and Delaware, the National Weather Service said.
        
        In Virginia, Governor Glenn Youngkin declared a state of emergency in anticipation of the storm, dubbed Ophelia, which is expected to hit the state on Friday evening. Concern about the storm's arrival has already prompted some schools to close and events to be canceled, local media reported.
        
        In his declaration, Youngkin said emergency responders would move into place in advance of the storm, which is expected to bring high surf, coastal flooding and tropical storm force winds to areas along the Chesapeake Bay and tidal areas of the Potomac River.
        
        Tropical storm warnings are in effect for much of the area, along with storm surge warnings, the National Weather Service said.
