Hurricane Ophelia Hits North Carolina
Kristen Gelinaeu has the story for the AP:
Hurricane Ophelia picked up strength as it closed in on North Carolina on Wednesday, soaking the region with a half-foot of rain, washing away a barrier island street and causing power outages.Though Ophelia is less powerful than Katrina was, I certainly hope that residents still take its threat seriously and are able to stay out of harm's way.
The storm had sustained wind of 80 mph Wednesday morning, up from 75 mph a few hours earlier, the National Hurricane Center said. Hurricane warnings were shifted northward, covering the entire North Carolina coast from the South Carolina line to Virginia, where a tropical storm warning covered the mouth of Chesapeake Bay.
