Yes, Okracoke is still there. There was a complete evacuation. Even the old salters left.
They fared well enough, time tested as they are... Generators are up. 50 power poles out to sea. The mainland, particularly Swan Quarter, saw high water. Long Distance power transmission lines were hit, leaving with them without power for many days to come. Here on the other side of the Pungo, our power returned, thanks to western NC crews, yesterday pm.

New inlet formed along Hwy. 12. Where?
Thanks for the great picture links. Glad to hear you came through. My immediate family's in Va Beach and extendeds are in Martin County. They did also.
Question -- I heard about a report that the big dunes on the Outer Banks had shifted, or some had disappeared. Any news on that?
