Yea C hope you do OK glad it has weakened but were still going to go thru the entire hurricane in lieu of the outskirts of one.
Were starting to get it now. Hurricane just made landfall at 7:30am at Wilmington. about 80 miles south of us right at 100mph winds.

Satellite went out, expecting the eye to be here about noon today. Rain started yesterday about 5pm and hasn't stopped yet. Expecting between 9-14 inches of rain.

Water in my creek is going out hope it stays that way.

We're having gusts now up to 70mph with sustained at 50mph.

I'll try to give reports as it get here until my internet goes out.

Just went thru the 1st bands of wind and rain but the eye is still about 50 miles south of hatteras. Probably will be getting to us at 2pm. 1 piece of flashing on my garage door came loose I removed it to put back on later. 1 small tree down and a couple more leaning. Wind is pushing the water out of my creek but the ditches are filling with water from the rain. Know more later as the main part gets to us.

Getting nasty here, power is out all around us, will prob go out soon here. Have both generators ready, plus the one in the motorhome(hot showers ahhhhhhhh!!--gas water heater anyway) so Im good as long as the wind damage stays to a minimum

Everybody take care, Cheers with a freshly made Dickle Tan and ginger!!
