Originally Published by: What is a nor’easter? Atlantic disturbance showing signs of slow development Massive debris piles along Outer Banks after 9 homes crumble from rough surf Millions of people in the Southeast and mid-Atlantic are bracing for the threat of continued coastal flooding as seasonal King Tides, this month’s Supermoon, and relentless onshore winds combine to send water rushing inland into coastal communities. This latest King Tide event occurs after nearly a dozen homes along North Carolina’s Outer Banks collapsed into the Atlantic Ocean due to massive waves that were kicked up due to hurricanes Imelda and Humberto last week. This current King Tide is expected to bring another round of high water, with persistent onshore winds adding to the risk by trapping water along the coast, especially in Florida.
