this is the part that we're going to be watching as we go throughout, especially i'd say in the next two to three hours as it heads northward. let's get the latest measurement on this to see how far away we are. this is the atlantic beach area. then down to the eye. you know, right now it's about 26 miles. so this as the storm pushes up along the coast is going to brush this area here. so we'll see how that all plays out. but that's what we're watching. because that's where the highest winds are. here's a different view of it on the radar. i have some of the stations that have the automatic wind readings on it. 57, a pair of them. quite the day, you started off with tornados, that big tornado. a lot of significant damage. now you've got a hurricane right next door. cape lookout starting to increase. winds not so bad in wilmington anymore. they're on the back side of the storm and heading out. high tide cycle is ongoing right now. looking at the storm gauge down here in the beaufort area. the storm surge is under 2 feet, that's good.
