New Bern was in a very bad configuration for surge, and now it looks like it will be in a very heavy feeder band for hours. And the current wind direction will keep any water from being able to drain out for probably 12 hours or so.

The entire coast between Wilmington and Pamlico Sound is facing right into the surge direction. Bad news indeed for getting maximum surge damage.

Was just looking at the flood projections for some additional rivers in the area N and NW of Morehead City from the NWS's latest briefing slides - the actual data on river heights seems to be trending HIGHER than the projections.
