Geeze,

maybe post #4 was right ???

 

I have family in NC and VA in the path. I'm trying to convince them to leave. Both are about 20 miles inland.

Looks like it's gonna rake the east coast.

Earthquake one week, hurricane the next.

Information for Ocracoke Island, Outer Banks, North Carolina

The tourists were told "BYE" yesterday and there is a mandatory evacuation today (25 August 2011) for the full time residents, about 800. If you refuse to leave (since the only way on or off of Ocracoke is by car ferry) then I think you have to sign a form stating that you know no one will come rescue you, if you decide to vamoose at a later time. Also, the next of kin information will be taken from you.

I'm on home time, but heard from another driver who is in NC this morning. Received Qmsg to deliver his load in Wilmington, NC this morning and then deadhead to Ellenwood, GA for his safety.

 

I live on the Space Coast of Florida. I just got off the phone with family. They're all okay. They're just gonna get a lot of rain and wind, but moderate to severe beach erosion is expected.

My prayers go out to those from the Myrtle Beach to New England. When you get a message to evacuate, please do so.
