We took a picture of hurricane Florence from NOAA and set it on a map of CNY to see if we could even comprehend the damage it would do. Here's what we found.

The National Weather Service (NWS) says winds and surf are increasing along the outer banks and Coastal Southeastern North Carolina. Life-threatening storm surge and rainfall are expected along with a tornado threat the is increasing as Florence moves closer.  We can't even imagine what those who live in that area are going through. We sure hope everyone is safe.

If Hurricane Florence were to hit CNY, this is what it would look like. Devastating.
