Big Storm Coming

Yeah, he's almost certainly talking about NC's Outer Banks. I used to live in NC, and we got our share of hurricanes every summer. Some friends of ours live near Wilmington, just south of the OBX, and they've gotten hammered several times.

Glad to hear you came out of it well, Cam.

Well it's just breaking dawn, I'll post now as the cyclone is currently crossing the coast about 45KM east of here now and not sure how much longer I'll have power. Lots of wind last night but everything still holding firm. Eerily calm at the moment. We did build this house to basic cyclone standard 30 years ago.
Some of our other friends from up the street dropped by yesterday afternoon for a beer and chat, they grow tropical flowers for a living and are worried about how their black plastic covered hothouse will fare. I remember helping them layout the hothouse about 5 years ago.
Our Nebelung cat has turned into a giant grey leech who won't stay off me, I think she knows what's about to happen.
See you all on the other side.

Stay Safe !

I believe he's talking about the string of islands near Kitty Hawk, NC. This is a small section.

Yep that's what I meant.

Looks like we got off fairly lightly had to travel south to the city today and quite a bit more damage, power outages, and road closures. Ranger is good for water over the road!
