I woke up this morning and turned on FNC and could only take about 2 mins of it. What a ridiculous spectacle. These people are absurd with their coverage of this storm.

Frying Pan feed shows a beautiful sunrise. It's been clear for over an hour. Is this the eye? | |||

It's warm and humid with zero breeze and rain where I live in SE Virginia. We had mandatory evacuations a few days ago. I think that was wise given what was known then. But what a hit to the economy. A lot of businesses around here have been closed since Wednesday. _____________ "I enter a swamp as a sacred place—a sanctum sanctorum.

There is apparently nothing else going on in the Whole Wide World! The overpressurized natural gasline explosions and fires in greater Lawrence, MA, would be a significant national story if not for the hurricane. Harshest Dream, Reality | |||

Just for the hell of it |
Seen some pictures and video from the OBX, Buxton, Hatteras area. Dunes breached and water sand on parts of the main road. This morning the storm had pushed parts of the sounds empty. Definitely some damage but looks a lot better then it could have been there. https://2ici3k3unys8ozllgrlz7r...arley-091318.mp4?_=1 Further south seems like it's taking the brunt of the storm. _____________________________________ Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn.

Looks like the surge put New Bern under water. :/ | |||

Hmmm, a shipmate who works on the opposite crew of me just went home a day ahead of the hurricane. We just changed out crews. He lives in New Bern.

Go Vols! |
Saw a few videos in Wilmington. They did not show massive flooding yet but that wind was hitting hard. Once all this is over, I suspect that town will be shut down for a couple weeks. | |||

New Bern is practically in the water in normal situations. Hope all your friends and family are safe! | |||

Hope the hospital is on some higher ground. Saw many hospitals doing evacs. | |||

I think the problem for New Bern was that the storm blew the water from the Sound up into those two rivers. Eventually there was no place to go, except over the banks. Neuse River had a surge of 10 feet https://www.dailymail.co.uk/ne...-North-Carolina.html | |||

It's sad. The most frustrating thing is these people were told to leave and they refused. Now they are scrambling to get out with all the roads flooded, risking the lives of others for their stupidity.

No. My guy is a sergeant with Kure Beach PD. We used to be assigned to public housing/gangs together. Best cop I’ve ever worked with. Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here.
