Sporadic, you need to call your airline. They generally close airports when winds reach 35+mph. The storm is predicted to be in Southern NC on Saturday noon.

I predict there will be a lot more vacant land on the barrier islands by this time next week.
Averett, thanks. We will be riding it out. We are not in a mandatory evacuation area. We are about 2.5 miles inland so should not be affected by the storm surge part of the storm.
We used to have a house directly on the Gulf on Siesta Key. We left for Tropical Storm Keith in 1989. When we went back, the road to our house was buried in sand four feet deep.
I'm not complaining tho. Price you pay to live in paradise, I guess. We had a helluva hurricane party last night.
