Hurricane Erin battered North Carolina's Outer Banks with strong winds and waves that flooded part of the main highway and surged under beachfront homes before slowly moving away.
As Hurricane Erin continues to move up the East Coast, officials say it could be days before the Outer Banks of North Carolina are fully accessible again. NBC’s Aaron Gilchrist reports and TODAY’s Dylan Dreyer tracks the latest forecast.
Local officials issued evacuation orders for parts of the Outer Banks, warning that the storm might wash out roads.
