Water levels rose to 2 to 3 feet above normal along coastal sections of the Outer Banks during the night of the 21st, and on the sound side of the Outer Banks on the 22nd as the low passed to the east.
Deaths and injuries are direct and indirect together, as the offices filed them. Damage is property and crops in the dollars of the year, not adjusted for inflation, and only where an office estimated it.
