Usual biggest problem is the rainfall saturating the root system and the canopy of mature or diseased trees causing them to either break or blow over. There is no good way out, just gotta watch and prepare.
You've seemed to have to have done a good job at that.

How's it going so far?
For some reason I had it in my mind only the beaches would get some appreciable rain. That booger is peeing all the way to Raleigh.

OK guys

Rt 12 road thru Hatteras is washed over from the ocean (last night) and today from the sound. Approx 5ft of water in some places.

I had wind gusts up to 70 mph lastnite and today until abt 11am. It took the water away from my place last nite but it's coming back in the creek as we speak because the eye is past us.

I'll know more about if I'll get flooded later today. I think I will be ok.

Hope everyone gets thru this ok.

Yea MJ for all the hype the TV was making out for Earl it was a dissappointment, not that I was hoping for damage but we went to extra cautions and the Noreasterner we had earlier this year was a lot worse.

Glad you guys didn't get much either MJ
