Ann and I are staying at Kill Devil Hills NC. And we are under high wind and inshore flooding conditions. These winds are causing big wave and coastal flooding warning.

Across the street from the hotel. Yikes! Screen shot from the video I wanted to post. But can't for some reason.

Those are huge waves. OBX is one of our favorite places. Hope you are still able to enjoy your trip.

We're going to Corolla tomorrow instead of today to drive on the beach. And hopefully see the horses. We just did some driving and shopping locally today.
 
OBX is currently not having great weather unless you're a low level weather channel employee. You're not at the Jim Cantore stage but the high winds make the beach not so fun. We have Sandbridge just a few miles away so I rarely cross the Carolina line. Enjoy what you can!

Thanks! We are. Today was not a beach day for sure!

Make sure you say hello to the Grave Digger while you're down there Steve. I used to like watching him in the eighties.

Steve I hope you get to enjoy your trip. Nice shot of the waves , but no fun for a beach walk

The winds are very bad up here
I was building a fence and deck for a costumer. It was bad the fence boards
were starting to flip off the pile every once in a while.
No fun, also and we are having a Tropical Cyclone warning until late tomorrow night

We will see how tomorrow goes with the job, lol

Probably not. We are pulling out Friday with thunderstorms in the forecast.

Hope today is better for fence building! They extended the wind warning until 10am this morning. I'm hoping to get out.
