Originally Published by: The history of Daylight Saving Time What is thundersnow? What is icebreaking and why is it important? New video from Buxton, a community along North Carolina’s Outer Banks, shows crews attempting to shore up and save an oceanfront house sitting barely above the tideline. 31 homes in Buxton and nearby Rodanthe have collapsed into the Atlantic Ocean since 2020, according to the Cape Hatteras National Seashore. Many of these homes were once hundreds of feet from the beach but are now constantly exposed to ocean water, a drastic example of ongoing coastal erosion, which has been exacerbated by storms over the last several years.
