Event Summary

Low pressure developed along the North Carolina coast during the afternoon of January 29, 2018.

Flooding occurred at the intersections of 160 Ave & 102 street started around 5:50 am and the flooding at the intersections of First Street, Russell Street & 104th Street started around the same time.
