Ophelia
North Carolina hasn’t been washed away yet by Ophelia and relative to Katrina, they’re getting off pretty easy. Wilmington, home to my alma mater and my girlfriend, was hit today with high winds, rain, and some flooding. Classes have been cancelled since Monday. There’s lots of power out and downed trees but nothing major to speak of as far as I know. I find it ironic that as soon as I leave for one of the most hurricane-prone states in the nation my ex-state gets one head on. In four years at UNC-Wilmington I only experienced one significant hurricane and even then there was no mandatory evacuation in my area (the Outer Banks, on the other hand, are always evacuated). Simply put, I’ve been pushing my luck and I’m sure the moment I publish this post a ‘cane will start brewing in the Atlantic.
