Are you sure? I just looked it up and RDU has had only 0.8".

Hmm.  Could be old age but I distinctly remember getting a pop up from a weather program about it. I believe it referenced storms around 10/9 and commented on the large difference.

The lack of rainfall events and the sporadic nature of showers and thunderstorms when they occurred led to widely variable rainfall totals for the month. As shown in Table 2, even though Raleigh was very wet with 7.53 inches for the month (most of that falling from the October 9 event), monthly totals were 2.80 inches at Greensboro (0.30 inches below normal) and only 1.21 inches at Fayetteville (2.02 inches below normal).

I think we were talking about this month and not October though, hence the confusion.
