Name: Bryan City: Burlington State: NC County: Alamance Join Date: Apr 2006 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.84 over 180 days | Just curious how the members down east weatherd Hanna. I have not seen any news today and I dont know if Hanna caused much damage, so was wandering how you came through. We lost power here for a couple of hours and had just shy of 3 inches in the rain guage this morning.
Sound off and let us know if all is ok.

Name: Charles City: Wilmington State: NC County: New Hanover Join Date: Nov 2005 Age: 61 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.77 over 180 days | We got about 2 1/2" of rain and some wind, not bad at all. I had one screen to blow out, so we were pretty lucky. Haven't heard from Trent, so I really don't know what happened on the beach. |

Name: Rick City: Cary State: NC County: Wake Join Date: Aug 2005 Age: 52 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 5.09 over 180 days | Here in Cary, I emptied the rain gauge yesterday upon returning from work, and this morning it was full at 5", and still raining. Emptied it again, and it added just a tad under 2" more! So effectively 7" of rain, some wind, no damage.
On the lighter side, my wife called me out to look at our garden - in particular a vole/mole hole. It had water coming up out of it like a spring!!! That'll teach them buggers to mess around in our yard!

Name: Phillip City: Lexington State: NC County: Davidson Join Date: Jun 2008 Age: 48 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.61 over 180 days | Here in Lexington we got a nice slow rain just a little over an inch and very little wind - I let the dog out this morning and the wind blew the wheel barrow over and she started running like a scarety cat and hit the cement patio at full speed and almost slid all the way to the back door - It was funny when it happened but I sure am glad she didn't get hurt

It was fine down at the beach. Just a bunch of wind, no flooding at all. We actually sat out on the porch in it until 3am. We did lose power for a few hours though. I'm glad to hear that everyone is ok.

Name: Jim M. City: Wilmington State: NC County: New Hanover Join Date: Mar 2007 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.22 over 180 days | We made out basically without a scratch, some wind, some rain and couple of trees down here or there with some small limbs. No worse than a long summer storm. Tomorrow has fishing written all over it! Hope the flooding in central land not too bad. Stay well, Jim
