OBX November Nor'Easter Storm 2009 Outer Banks

Didn't want to take the expensive gear out today so I took a Handicam in an underwater housing and went to the Avalon Pier in Kill Devil Hills and a house that is way out in the surf in Kitty Hawk. I've always wanted to stay in that house during the summer! One of the last one's standing on that stretch after Isabel. The quality is might bad on the actual video but that's how it goes with a Handicam :-) Too funny that The Weather Channel was calling it "Atlantic Assault". Anyway, it's always fun to get out in it. Check out my other stuff if you haven't already!

This was just a small storm... the flimsy built houses along hwy12 in Nags Head and KDH are on borrowed time! They are waiting on a "Chicago type fire", or a category 3 or better hurricane!!

You aren't kidding! We love it here but it's just a fact that we are heavily at risk. Like someone else commented here, it's just a sandbar really.

Hey....did you see the one I posted of damage in Nags Head?

[zanthlion]

huh...interesting that you have almost 10k views...i didn't realize that many people knew of the OBX...lol...I work for Reed Gas over in Manteo/Wanchese and we were out all day during the storm...was pretty crazy...and ya, REALLY wet...lol...great footage man...wish i'd got to go down to the beach and watch it...cool bench by the way

[tonybvideo]

Yea, it was pretty crazy. I loved the bench too! I though..some is missing that bad boy :-) Have you watched the other one I posted from Nags Head? It's up there in the video responses.

Gotta love living in the OBX area.. Kinda sorta.. 15 mins away.. But I am in one of those little towns where ALL OF THE TRAFFIC COMES THROUGH.. Cant wait for Mid County Bridge.. Its no fun for locals in the summer D:

Great job with the video! And yep, we are in for it here sooner or later!

[rumerboyz]

Great video!! Like the music

I "surfed" :-) through a number of videos this morning, looking for Nov. 2009. If you send me a link for NH, I'll take a peek, thanks! Glad to hear Rodanthe is coming back, we feel badly for what the residents are going through...I lived across the street from Long Island Sound in 1954 and we had 3 hurricanes in a row, then my Mom said...enough! and we moved...:-( Guess it comes with the territory.

That's funny! I didn't even notice the typos. Dang Graphics programs don't have spell check :-) I guess we get too used to it and when you're doing these things fast, you gloss right over it.

Rodanthe is finally starting to get back in shape. Just opened to traffic that's not FWD so I guess that's good.
