Thanks. Man, what an eye!

How is it down there?

[glock rocks]

Kill Devil-N.C.Avalon Pier (check the bottom right :o)

[Doohickey]

When I was a kid, we had one that weighted *ahem* 23 pounds. Both parents were in the 4-7 pound range LOL!

"i will hate being without FR!"

We will hate it without you!

Monitoring TWC.

May God be with all of you today -- and always, of course.

[Mad Dawgg]

SO where did the NE edge strike? Was it Hatteras?

[Howlin]

ROFLMAO. You know how much I love stuff like that! I just loved it when the 4th ID went into Baghdad and put up that Georgia Bulldog flag at Saddam's palace.

People are SO witty!

[NCjim]

I think the eye has not come in yet.

[steveegg]

Just hope the phone doesn't go at the same time.

[Howlin]

Wow, that would be 3 of her!!! Was it all hair?

[Gabz]

10-4

It's only been raining for about 90 minutes....but wind is starting to pick up

[NCjim]

Here is the radar pic from 20 minutes ago:

Good luck, CD. Check in when you can.

[Mad Dawgg]

WOW, it looks like the top of the swells are reaching the bottom of the pier at Avalon.

[glock rocks]

gettin close...

here's a good radar loop

[steveegg]

Mornin' everybody. That's a large eye, and thankfully Izzy didn't pull a Hugo on us.

[NCjim]

The black dot below the word 'Jacksonville" is the actual radar location at Newport which is, as I mentioned earlier, just inland from Bogue Banks across from Emerald Isle.

[CobaltBlue]

Here in Fairfax nothing to report other than it's very cloudy, the sky is dark, and there is a little wind, not much. My Weatherbug says gusts up to 14, coming from the SE. No rain yet.

[Gabz]

Thanks dear.

Wind is starting to pick up here and it is starting to get a bit darker.

[glock rocks]

Very best to you. Stay alert!
