After a hectic week catching back up in Richmond, VA working on the house, yard, job, wedding photography, and some mountain biking, I came back to Hatteras last night.

Being a weather junkie, I have been watching the Island’s weather from Richmond, and the weather has been a little crazy down here the past few days.

Northerly winds have been kicking up a decent swell and lots of rain has been dumping all over the island. News reports indicates somewhere 8″-9″ between yesterday and this morning. This made the morning commute somewhat more interesting.

All of the water on the roads (and yards, parking lots, and just about everywhere) was from rain. Not storm surge or swell. All rain.

Luckily the Subaru made it through with no problems. I was more than a little late getting to work, but that is part of life here on the sandbar.

Aloha.
