Latest resports from the National Weather Service says that Ernesto will probably be upgraded to a hurricane as it passes over the Carolinas' shore. Let's hope the Island Jewel is sturdier than its successor, which was completely destroyed by Hurricane Isabelle. If memory serves me correctly, the area where Hatteras Island Estates is now located, was the victim of a wash over during Izzy. Hence, all of the new construction.
Check out the Rodanthe S-Curves web cam, once Ernesto hits. The S-Curves are often submerged during storms. It is already looking rather ominous. Just think .... whoever is staying in the Island Jewel right now, may become stranded on Hatteras Island for an indeterminate amount of time, if the S-Curves go under. Geez, that would be ..... uhhhhhh ..... someone remind me to stock up on beer if there is a storm approaching during our stay. I'm thinking that would NOT be a bad thing.
