Hurricane Erin waves slam into North Carolina homes
Digest more
Hurricane Erin won’t make landfall on the Outer Banks but is projected to produce dangerous rip currents along the beaches.
NCDOT officials said “given the winds, wave heights and storm surge forecast, it likely won’t be enough” to keep NC 12 from flooding at the Outer Banks.
The storm has already prompted an evacuation order for Hatteras Island on North Carolina's Outer Banks and warnings about dangerous rip currents and swells along the East Coast.
