The Town of Nags Head discussed Beach Nourishment at their August 20th meeting - you can read all of the details in the article by The Outer Banks Sentinel. I know this is a touchy subject for many, but there are medications that can alleviate some of the symptoms associated with beach nourishment discussions...
Last night while rolling back into town, I saw my brightest fireball to date. It happened at 10:00 while driving north towards Southern Shores on the bypass. It might have been an early start to the Perseids Meteor Shower which will happen over the next 10 days.
The Outer Banks is such a great place to view Meteor Showers - the lack of light pollution and the fact that you are on a beach makes viewing that much better.
Fireballs are much larger and brighter than a typical meteor. Many might mistake a fireball for fireworks - not last night's version. It looked like a flare shot from above towards the beach. Hope everyone has a chance to view the heavenly show next week.
I like statistics. Always have. Jeff Scott from Scott Team Realty is great about posting Outer Banks Real Estate Sales Statistics (follow link for full report). They might not be pretty but I admire him for posting the truth.
Thanks to Jeff for sharing the data. Based on the graph - the slowdown really did start in late 2005.
