As the week progresses, Fred is forecast to move inland across southeastern Alabama, before turning northeastward through the Tennessee Valley and southern Appalachians, losing wind intensity as it does so. The amounts of rainfall that are forecast could lead to significant problems hundreds of miles inland from the Gulf coast. Widespread 2-4 inches of rain is forecast from the Mississippi-Alabama border and southern Georgia on northward into West Virginia and central Virginia. The concentration of heaviest rain, aside from the Gulf Coast, is likely to be in the Appalachian Mountains of northern Georgia, eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina, where more than 6 inches of rain is possible. AccuWeather's Bernie Rayno (@AccuRayno on Twitter) has all the details on today's ‘Weather Insider’.
