Fayetteville NC here. Was getting bored watched the news feed and channel flicked and hit on it just as the people were getting sick. Of course had to watch it to the end.
Oh, the Hurricane - just gusty winds right now. My weather station is reading 75.3 deg, 79% hum, and 29.49 inHG.

Yep - that pressure drop is awesome. Same chart in is progress further up the road (er, if there was a road) on Hatteras Island at the next buoy in line.
That station is reporting more often - 61 kt gust (peaked at 66 about an hour ago).

I'm not going to sing for you today. Understood - we had to retire the act for the greater good. Will continue to pray for protection from harm of all in the path of the storm.
