A cold front blew through the area yesterday, but the weather was not too severe. It did blow a bit, however. Today it's cooler (temperatures are in the mid 50's), overcast, and breezy, but there's no rain.

Tonight the Ocracoke Civic & Business Association meets at the Community Center. Their web site is www.ocracokevillage.com.
