Everyone stay safe.

7/25/24 6:11 AM: Good morning from Newport, where we're starting the day off at 81 degrees. Periods of showers and thunderstorms are expected today, and a few strong storms are possible posing a risk for a few damaging wind gusts. Yet again, heavy rain and flash flooding are the biggest hazard. A Flood Watch is in effect area-wide until midnight.

Good information. Please read and pass on.

Q: How do I assist someone who is caught in a rip current?
A: Many people have died trying to rescue rip current victims. Here are the best ways to help:

✔️ Alert the lifeguard. If no lifeguard is available, call 911.
✔️ Yell to the victim to swim parallel to the shoreline until they escape the pull.
✔️ If possible, throw the rip current victim something that floats: a boogie board, pool float, etc.
✔️Do not enter the water and do not lose sight of the victim.

Remember, many would-be rescuers have drowned trying to help others. Don't become a victim while trying to help someone else. Know your location and call for help.

What these hole diggers also don’t realize is the poor lifeguards doing their last beach patrol of the evening, after a long day have to fill the holes back in! I send my boys out to help if I see this. Not cool!

🏰 Build sand castles instead of digging holes! Dangerous holes in the sand can capture, collapse, and crush unsuspecting beach walkers and children. 🕳️

This week’s episode of This Old 1950’s Beach Cottage features a dining room makeover. We settled on a temporary solution for the flooring last month and this week we painted the table, chairs and bench.

🅿️ Parking on side streets in Kitty Hawk has always been a challenge. 🚓 We would prefer you use one of the 274 spaces provided at the beach accesses but we know they can be taken quickly on great beach days. 🏖 Luckily Officer Ramirez created this quick and easy visual guide! 👮

🛞 When parking along side streets be sure that ALL tires are off the roadway and that your vehicle is secure 🔒 and not blocking traffic, streets, or driveways. Please look for 👩‍🚒 fire hydrants and signage that may prohibit parking as well.
