HURRICANE EARL BATTERS NAGS HEAD/KILL DEVIL HILLS
World Cast News was on location yesterday in Kill Devil Hills, Nags
Head, and then Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, as Hurricane Earl closed in
on the coast. Even though Earl weakened and the eye stayed offshore, it
brought strong winds, beach erosion, and heavy rain squalls. But the
biggest thing by far that surprised me was the waves generated from
Earl, the winds which knocked my camera off the tripod as I was
reporting, and alot of people who decided not to evacuate! Click the 'Hurricane Earl Coverage Part 2' link above to watch the latest report.

Several People Hurt On Griffon Incident
Several riders on Griffon were hurt Thursday evening, after storms rolled through the Busch Gardens Williamsburg area, and caused a prop to be blown into the path of an oncoming Griffon train. The ride reopened today, but here is a statement from Busch Gardens on the event:
"At approximately 7:30 p.m. Thursday, a quickly moving storm caused a weather-related incident at Busch Gardens. A sudden gust of high wind knocked an inflatable prop into the path of a Griffon coaster train, which came to a stop at the top of the coaster's second hill.
Guests were escorted from the train and treated on site for injuries. Five guests were transported to Sentara Williamsburg Regional Medical Center. Please contact the hospital for information on the guests' conditions."
