As someone who grew up in NC, I'd keep a close eye out and potentially cancel your trip as you can do so at the last minute. The eastern half of the state is already soaked from recent rains, and rivers/creeks are high. If the storm makes landfall in wilmington as it looks today, Raleigh, etc will be in the outer bands of the storm as well. The good thing is the storm is moving slow at the moment, just seems like something you don't want to get stuck in.
