Gustav

Ocracokers, well aware of the power of a category 3 or 4 hurricane, have been following the path of Gustav with concern for New Orleans and the surrounding areas. As grateful as we are to have not had a major storm on the Outer Banks in several years, we are watching tonight's news with trepidation, and hoping that the preparations and evacuations along the Gulf Coast will protect our fellow citizens from the devastation of another Katrina-like hurricane.
