Officials have said that Michael isn’t expected to cause the same kind of river flooding as Florence.
But Cooper said that Michael could bring up to 7 inches of rain to parts of the state, which could cause flash flooding.
He urged people in flood-prone areas to watch forecasts and heed any evacuation orders.
Cooper said tropical storm-force winds will likely arrive overnight into Thursday, and that the wind and rain could further damage tarped houses where people are working to rebuild.
