hurricane ophelia

My childhood vacation spot (where I just took Graham a few weeks ago) is having a near miss with Hurricane Ophelia. (Nags Head is somewhere north of the pointy bit where the island starts curving north and then northwest.)

kirinn and ayb2, looks like you've got a lot of rain coming your way... hope your shoes stay dry.

ETA: OK, maybe that's more like a "near hit" around tomorrow - the storm is expected to go right along the coast. Sniff. But at least my friends' shoes aren't a matter of concern ;)
