    Hermine - from Avalon Pier, outer banks NC

    AWSOME exhibition of the power of nature. I have fished this pier many times and got wet feet from waves - and a bit queezy from the pier rocking - but I am glad to see there was not anyone still fishing on the pier this day! But you can bet they were waiting in the parking lot for the storm to clear......

    Good times, Good friends, Great Beer. You can buy all three - But it's always better to invest the time to make your own.

    That thing looks like something from a futuristic fiction movie.

    It spared the pier and came ashore - imagine the sandblast effect if that thing crossed a parking lot

    Yep...in the 2nd pic, the "twister" has already sucked all the people on the beach up and even lowered the sand dunes, yet left all of the shoes and picket fence next to the sign

    Looks like someone spent some time producing a farce - but to what end. Forgive me for forwarding the deception.
