"Live" from the Hurricane Irene Nationals presented by RainX

[HR9121]

Logging operations have ceased for today due to mill closing early for the storm. We have been working near kinston and on the way home I noticed alot more traffic in the west bound lanes than in the east ones. Walmart parking lot looked like Christmas Eve. All the cars were gone off Bud Rowe's car lot as if everyone had gotten their tax returns yesterday. The first bands of rain have started to come in now and the wind is increasing now from the east. Some numbers from the weather station- 84 deg barometer @29.80 the Vp is .95 and the DA is 3018. Back later with more.
