Tainsley happy to hear your daughter had no problems. Sorry to hear your electric is out, so is my daughters. She drove home to Columbia last night and saw that 5 trailers going into town were totally gone, due to a tornado that touched down in her area. Other than no electric and a few tree limbs down in the back yard, her house is in good shape not even a shingle missing.

senior citizen the main route to the Outer Banks (rte 158) is open. The Outer Banks is closed to all but essential personnel, according to the county. They are stopping everyone at the bridge and turning them around.
The only road that has a breach in it is the one leading to Hatteras Island and that's always been a trouble spot. Plus they have no electricity at this point on Hatteras
