Checking the radar all day I spotted a clearing in the torrential down pouring rain and grabbed Chris, Stuckey and Claire and headed to S-Turns (the North end of town). It wasn’t closed off yet but the water was washing over the road on the bigger sets and it’s not high tide until 3pm.
We took some pictures of the Serendipity, the Nights in Rodanthe House (yeah the one from the movie), for a bit. The water was crashing up against the front fo the house and then running up the dune in front of the house. Then headed over to where the water was eroding the dunes. All that was stopping the water from washing away the road are some very large sand bags. It was quite the sight to see this afternoon! It started to pour again so we packed it up and headed out…
