From the brochure: *"The Frying Pan Tower is a Coast Guard Light Station located 34 miles off the coast of North Carolina that has been turned into a unique adventure bed & breakfast like no other! *The Frying Pan Tower is located out of sight of land in 50 ft. of clear blue Atlantic waters (lat & lon 33°29′N 77°35′W) With the Gulf Stream close by, we often are pleasantly warm when it’s still cold onshore and mild when it’s too hot to walk on the sand at the beach so don’t let a great weekend go to waste, come be part of history!"

Ha, I was playing some Spotify on Bluetooth and didn’t think there would be sound on the video feed. I now have to pry my dogs off the ceiling.

Probably a cheap Chinese one, hand made in 'Murica wouldn’t have torn. Add it to Trumps death tolll…

7

Hopefully they will take it down. If there is anyone there to do that.

8

It should have been taken down before storm. They could have easily flown a hurricane flag.

9

It is torn now.

Somebody should go out and take down the flag.

Hopefully their is no one out there to take it down. It’s sad to watch it tear apart.

11

Here is a good interactive map to watch the storm. Just move it up north and then zoom in a little.

It’s not off to the right ? Earlier the camera moved.

14

camera moved in the last 10 minutes or so. I JUST saw the flag getting a bit torn up.

15

I think they just rotated the camera so it was facing into the wind again. The waves were coming straight at the camera withe flag, then they started coming from the left side of the image. Now you can see the egg on the fry pan and the waves are head on.

16

They turned it back to the flag. The flag is in taters. I think it’s a simile of what’s to come for the Carolina’s.

17

Conditions look impossibly worse as well.

Someone should take a boat and go out there so they can take it down. It doesn’t look that rough.

Flag in taters? Is that a Southern dish?
