New York and North Carolina have begun reopening beaches that had been closed due to Hurricane Erin. The storm sent strong winds and dangerous waves across the U.S.

Hurricane Erin is marching north, lashing North Carolina's Outer Banks with rough waves and coastal flooding, and bringing a threat of dangerous waves and potentially deadly rip currents to the East Coast.

Storm surge flooding and tropical storm conditions are causing significant problems for NC's Outer Banks-especially for beachfront properties.
