Ophelia's Path: Storm Updates and Impacts

Tropical Storm Ophelia made landfall near a North Carolina barrier island, causing flooding in parts of coastal North Carolina and Virginia. The storm weakened as it moved north, and by Saturday evening, it had become a tropical depression. However, riverfront communities in North Carolina experienced significant flooding, and power outages spread to several eastern counties. Ophelia is expected to continue moving northeast along the mid-Atlantic coast, bringing heavy rain and windy conditions. The storm's primary risk is the threat of floods from the rain.
