News out of Raleigh this AM is that all 3 lines are "compromised". Odd choice of word for severed. I guess our beach house in Avon starting on the 12th is questionable. We'll see I guess.
Some folks have made other arrangements north of the break but that could backfire. Like if the power comes back on the day before the reservation starts and you already paid for a place in Duck also. Whoops!
Gordon3 has a good point, lay new cables bypassing the break and fix the current break in November. A seasonal area like OBX can ill afford a catastrophe like this. Storms are bad enough but this was just stupid.
