Dorian flooding may have trapped Outer Banks residents

By Around the Web

(NEW YORK POST) North Carolina officials are worried that some Outer Banks residents might be trapped by flooding from Hurricane Dorian.

The water rose 7 feet in just two hours as Dorian made landfall Friday morning as a Category 1 storm. That was far weaker than the Category 5 monster which devastated the Bahamas earlier in the week, but it still brought surging waters that flooded even elevated homes. The main road through the island was also severely damaged.

Photos showing massive buckling from the flooding were shared on social media Saturday morning by local TV stations.
