A rapidly strengthening area of low pressure off the Carolina coast on Friday will bring significant coastal impacts to the Outer Banks in the form of damaging wind gusts, moderate to major coastal flooding and heavy rain, the FOX Forecast Center said.
Because the strong winds will blow in from the northeast, this storm can be classified as a nor'easter.
A strong pressure gradient between the low and high to the north will lead to a period of intense winds on Friday morning. The FOX Forecast Center said wind gusts along the Outer Banks will likely top 50 mph and could potentially touch 70 mph. Some power outages appear likely.
