Hurricane Michael Relief

Last week, the remnants of Hurricane Michael tore quickly through the Outer Banks, an unexpected, overnight fury of wind and flooding. After all of our community’s wise preparations for Florence, the ferocity of fast-moving Michael took most of us by surprise.  While many Outer Banks neighborhoods escaped relatively unscathed, many of our friends were badly flooded. In Colington, Manteo, Wanchese, Kitty Hawk Village, and sound side Kill Devil Hills, wind-driven floodwater wrecked cars and reached new heights in ground-level abodes.
