“The town of Edenton, North Carolina, is a beautiful town. At one time, it was capital of North Carolina. It took a devastating hit in this storm, and the previous high-water mark, I think, was probably Hurricane Hazel in the 1950s, to say nothing of Fran and Floyd later, and this storm in that part of North Carolina topped all of those. The damage was far greater, and so it is important to stress that while the Outer Banks are hurt very badly, and there has been a great deal of attention focused on that area, and that carries with it, of course, a lot of agricultural damage, those inland areas in northeastern North Carolina are hit fully as hard and have a huge challenge in this road back.”
