Interested in really seeing how things look on the Coast? Some brave soul at Carolina Designs Realty strapped a helmet to his head and recorded his ventures out this morning:

"Here's my attempt to make it to the beach this morning on the Outer Banks. The van was stuck so I had to resort to other measures. Luckily the old trusty Yamaha TTR 125 was there to help me with the job":

Or maybe you prefer a tour of the area from inside a vehicle, US 158 via Kill Devil Hills PD Sgt. John Towler:

Thanks to Sam Walker, staff writer at the Outer Banks Voice and News Director at Max Radio of the Carolinas (@SamWalkerOBX) for links to both videos via Twitter.
