Up in Bertie County south of Ahoskie first responders and volunteers are going door to door to check on residents. We’re lucky down in Wilson. We had a few homes destroyed out by Wiggins Mill, and a twister went through a business area doing some damage around the Forest Hills Rd / Tarboro St intersection. The CVS drugstore there took some serious damage. There have been some injuries, but so far it looks like we’ve escaped with property damage... no loss of lives.

The death toll in North Carolina alone now appears to be around 24, including at least 10 in Bertie County, a mostly rural county in northeastern NC, about midway between Raleigh and Norfolk.
