The latest storm track for Hurricane Irene has it shifting slightly to the west, bringing the Category 3 storm over the Outer Banks instead of just offshore. This minute shift could have a big impact on locations farther inland. Tropical storm force winds could be felt as far west as Interstate 95, according to Wilson County Emergency Management. Unless the track changes dramatically, the North Carolina coast is in for quite a blow.
Red Cross emergency officials continue to track the storm in daily conference calls and will adjust response plans to meet the needs as they develop.
