    Fear of closing bridges is why I haven’t left here...at least you got a bit more to do without needing a bridge than I do. I don’t think they’d appreciate me trying to get on the Ocean Course at Kiawah...but it did cross my mind.

    No stores open that I know of. Bi-Lo and the gas station closed at noon yesterday. Food Lion was open yesterday. Low Tide boarded up yesterday too I think.

    :rofl:

    On TWC the host in Wilmington is trying to sensationalize the wind by leaning into it and shuffling his feet then two skinny kids walk down the street behind him in shorts and hoodies standing straight up with hands in their pockets.

    :facepalm:

    Just downgraded to a tropical storm according to local news and lots of hurricane watches/warnings lifted and/or changed to tropical storm. Looks like we dodged damn near the whole thing except for a bit of wind and rain.
