Per the NHC, Hurricane Melissa has made landfall in Jamaica with winds of 185mph and a central pressure of 892mb... One of the strongest hurricanes to make landfall in the Atlantic Basin. #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx #Melissa #NHC #NOAA

A few pictures of NC12 during this afternoon's high tide cycle: 1) Canal Zone 2) Pea Island 3) North of Hatteras Village 4) Ocracoke Island NC12 is CLOSED between the Basnight Bridge and Rodanthe, and on the north end of Ocracoke between the Pony Pens and the ferry terminal.

GREAT NEWS! NC12 between the Basnight Bridge and Rodanthe will REOPEN today at 5 p.m.!!! Keep in mind that the road will still have areas of sand and water on the road, so please drive carefully. NC12 on the north end of Ocracoke Island will remain closed tonight.

NCDOT tells me N.C. 12 will reopen at 5pm! Cars are already lining up #spectrumnews1 Spectrum News 1 ILM #ncwx

Small taste of #Hurricane #MELISSA on SW coast of #Jamaica, just as we started getting raked by violent right eyewall. Belive it or not, this was before the peak conditions, when everything turned white, the screaming sound became unbearable, & we needed to bolt the door shut.

Good afternoon. Unfortunately, due to continued ocean overwash during the day today, NC12 on the north end of Ocracoke Island will remain CLOSED tonight. Elsewhere, NC12 remains open and passable with sand and water on the road in several locations. Please drive carefully.

Only got to watch the first half due to my early bedtime, but what a way to open the season. Just have to feel like something special could be starting with the Will Wade era at NC State. Go Pack!

Good Thursday morning! It's shaping up to be another beautiful fall day across NC: spectrumlocalnews.com/weather #ncwx #WeatherOnThe1s

Gusty winds will increase the risk for wildfire danger across much of #NorthCarolina on Sunday. We see more than 4,500 wildfires in NC annually, with nearly 99% caused by human activities, such as backyard burning and campfires. spectrumlocalnews.com/weather #ncwx #WeatherOnThe1s

Good Monday morning! Today will be sunny but cooler than the weekend. Warmer days will return later in the week: spectrumlocalnews.com/weather #ncwx #WeatherOnThe1s
