A FULL UPDATE IN JUST A LITTLE
BIT.
TOM:
NOW, ARE LIVE TEAM COVERAGE
BEGINS ON THE OUTER BANKS.
ANDY FOX HAS BEEN OUT THERE ALL
DAY LONG.
ANITA: YOU FOUND SOME MAJOR
DAMAGE.
IMPROVING CONDITIONS AS WELL.
1 -- I'M LOOKING OUT ON THE
HORIZON.
IT WILL BE A REALLY NICE DAY
TOMORROW.
WE WANTED TO TAKE A LOOK BACK.
I WILL SHOW YOU WHAT HAPPENED
BEHIND ME WITH DORIAN BEFORE SHE
LEFT.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THIS VIDEO.
WE HAVE COVERED A LOT OF
HURRICANES.
WE AGREE THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST
AMAZING ONCE WE'VE DONE.
WE WERE OUT THERE ON 64.
WE HAD ALL THE WATER COMING DOWN
FROM THE UPPER SOUNDS TO THE
LOWER SOUND.
THE ROANOKE SOUND AND INTO THE
BELLICOSE SOUND.
IT WAS AN AMAZING DISPLAY.
IT WAS LIKE GROUND ZERO OF WHERE
THE WATER WAS RUSHING DOWN TO
GET INTO THE SOUND.
THAT'S WHERE ALL THE FLOODING
CAME FROM.
HITTING HATTERAS AND FRISCO.
OF COURSE, WE HAD THE UTILITY
POLES SNAPPING.
THE OTHERS JUST FELL OVER.
WE SAW THE POWER GO OUT.
WE HAD THE TRANSFORMERS POPPING.
THERE WERE FIRES IN THE
TRANSFORMERS.
OF COURSE, THE POWER WENT OUT.
IT WAS JUST AN AMAZING DISPLAY
ON THE POWER OF HURRICANES.
WE WERE IN SUSTAINED WINDS
BETWEEN 65-75 MILES PER HOUR.
IT WAS THAT INTENSE.
COMING BACK LIVE NOW, WE ARE NOW
IN KILL DEVIL HILLS.
DORIAN LEFT THE MARKING
CARDS OF
WHAT THIS HURRICANE WAS.
TAKE A LOOK AT THE SURF.
IT IS KILLING IT.
THAT'S THE LATEST FROM KILL
DEVIL HILLS ON A MEMORABLE
WEATHER DAY HERE IN THE OUTER
BANKS AND ALL OVER THIS AREA IN
NORTH CAROLINA.
ANITA:
WE WILL STAY IN NORTH
CAROLINA.
LET'S SEE HOW THINGS ARE LOOKING
NOW.
TOM: THAT'S WHERE THE MOST RAIN
FELL.
ABOUT SEVEN INCHES.
SO MUCH RAIN.
IT STARTED
AROUND 8:00 AND KEPT
GOING AND GOING AND GOING.
IT WAS EVIDENT HERE AROUND THE
CITY.
I SPOKE WITH THE CITY MANAGER
EARLIER.
THERE ARE SEVERAL ROADS
IMPASSABLE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OF
HIGH WATER.
THEY ARE ASKING PEOPLE NOT TO GO
THROUGH THEM.
ALONG WITH THOSE IMPACTFUL
ROADS, THERE WERE DOWNED TREES
BLOCKING ROADS.
THAT IS SOMETHING WE SAW A LOT
OF.
IF YOU ARE ABLE TO PIN THIS
WAY,
THERE'S A LOT OF BRANCHES AND
TREE LIMBS SCATTERED ON THE
GROUND.
THE GROUND IS SO WET.
IT DIDN'T TAKE MUCH FOR SOME OF
THESE TREES TO BE UPROOTED.
WE SPOKE WITH A MAN WHO WAS HOME
WHEN A TREE FELL INCHES FROM HIS
HOUSE.
HERE'S WHAT HE HAD TO SAY.
MY MOTHER SAID, LOOK AT THIS.
THE PERSON WAS LEANING.
THAT FELL ALL THE WAY DOWN.
WE THOUGHT IT WAS A STRONG TREE
BUT IT GOT WEAKER.
THERE HAVEN'T BEEN ANY
REPORTS OVER HERE OF INJURIES OR
HOMES DAMAGED BY TREES WE'VE
BEEN MADE AWARE OF ANY WAY.
RIGHT NOW, THE BIGGEST CONCERN
SEEMS TO BE SOME MORE INLAND
TIDAL FLOODING FROM THE WATER
COMING OUT.
WE ARE AT WATERFRONT PARK.
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THIS, ALL
THE WATER THAT WENT OUT WITH THE
STORM.
IT'S COMING BACK IN.
THAT'S THE BIGGEST CONCERN ALONG
WITH GETTING POWER RESTORED TO
EVERYBODY OUT HERE.
THAT'S IT FOR NOW.
