If you weren't in the area for Hurricane Irene in 2011, look through these comments so you know why we tell everyone to be prepared this time of year.

Do you remember where you were 15 years ago today? On this day in 2011, Hurricane Irene made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane in Cape Lookout, North Carolina. Irene was responsible for seven deaths in North Carolina and roughly $1.2B in damage, equivalent to $1.7B today. At it's peak, over 660,000 North Carolina residents were without power as the powerful storm moved through.

Hurricane-force winds were recorded along the North Carolina coast and areas inland as the storm made landfall. Along with the winds came significant storm surge with some locations recording values over 10 feet. Several tornadoes were also observed hours before the storm made landfall, causing localized damage to areas in northeastern NC.

There is no change to our sanitation collection schedule (including curbside recycling) due to the Labor Day holiday. However, all town administrative offices will be closed Monday, September 7 and our bulk/brush collection yard will also be closed that day.

A reminder: the curbside bulk item/brush collection service begins again October 1. Please do not place items out for collection prior to that date. Thank you!

Dolly Parton said, "If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain."

Tropical Storm Dolly said, "Hold my rhinestones."

The storm is currently far out in the Atlantic, but we're sharing the latest update from the National Weather Service.

Hold onto your wigs. This Dolly is still finding her stage.

Tropical Storm Dolly has formed in the central Tropical Atlantic. The storm is still too far away to know about impacts, IF ANY, in our area. A good reminder, is your hurricane plan ready?

Not the Atlantic (whew), but this image is still triggering. Way, way too much color. Who's with us?

The Atlantic Ocean is a bit calmer than this, but don't let that fool you. We're heading into the heart of hurricane season, so make sure you're prepared.

If you ever find yourself caught in a rip current, remember that rip currents pull you out, not under.
✔️ Don’t panic or swim against the current.
✔️ Wave for help.
✔️ Stay afloat. Try to relax and float with the current until it weakens.
✔️ Swim parallel to the shore.
✔️ Once you no longer feel the pull of the current, you can begin swimming to shore.

To avoid rip current problems, check the daily beach hazards report at LoveTheBeachRespectTheOcean.com and always check in with the lifeguard when you arrive at the beach.
