NC12 on Ocracoke Island remains CLOSED this morning due to ocean overwash and unsafe driving conditions, and ferry service between Hatteras and Ocracoke Islands remains suspended until the road reopens.
Cape Hatteras National Seashore has opened a new 16-car parking area just north of Buxton Village. The parking area provides a safer experience for Seashore visitors along a stretch of N.C. Highway 12 that is popular for both sound side & ocean side recreational activities.
Cape Hatteras National Seashore visitors may want to avoid the north end of Ocracoke Island until driving conditions improve. The following photos were taken this morning by National Park Service employees.
Construction work begins at Ocracoke Light Station; limited visitor access to site expected over next 12 months. Visitors should park in gravel parking lot located approximately 200 feet northeast of the light station on Lighthouse Road. News Release: nps.gov/caha/learn/new…

12:30 p.m. update from N.C. Dept. of Transportation: Because of continued ocean over wash today & confidence over wash will again be a safety concern at tonight's 7 p.m. high tide, N.C. Highway 12 between the Pony Pens & ferry terminal will remain closed until tomorrow afternoon.
NC12 on the north end of Ocracoke between the Pony Pens and the ferry terminal is NOW CLOSED due to ocean overwash. NC12 on Pea/Hatteras Islands is OPEN and passable with blown sand and standing rainwater in several locations. DRIVE WITH EXTREME CAUTION if driving this AM.

Facilities at Cape Hatteras National Seashore, @FortRaleighNPS and @WrightBrosNPS, will close ahead of anticipated impacts from a strong cold front forecast to bring strong winds, coastal flooding and ocean overwash Jan. 9 into Jan 10. nps.gov/caha/learn/new…
Great news! NC12 on the north end of Ocracoke Island has reopened, and ferry service between Hatteras and Ocracoke will resume with the 5 p.m. departure from Hatteras. Please note that there are sections of NC12 with sand and water on the roadway, so please drive carefully!

Here are a couple photos of standing water on NC Highway 12 and a parking area near the pony pasture on Ocracoke Island.
Excuse our mess. Here is a photo taken earlier this morning of the Frisco Beach Access parking lot. NC Highway 12 is currently closed to the south of this parking lot.
TRAVEL ALERT: NC-12 is closed between Frisco and Hatteras on Hatteras Island and between the Pony Pasture and the Ocracoke-South Dock Ferry Terminal on Ocracoke Island. Both closures are due to ocean overwash and dune breaches. Both locations expected to reopen by 3 p.m. today.
September 13 update from @NWSMoreheadCity: Extremely dangerous beach conditions are expected today as surf heights continue to build. Unfortunately, even worse surf conditions expected tomorrow, with a High Threat of rip currents likely through the upcoming weekend.
Hurricane Lee—currently a Category 3 storm that is forecast to move through the western Atlantic Ocean this week—will create hazardous conditions along all Dare County beaches over the next several days and through the weekend as it passes offshore. DareNC.gov/News
