With how easily/often New Bern floods. You would need to trade your Miata in for a boat if you had stayed.
I remember Fran, which they say Florence is comparable. Fran didn't really do that much damage this far inland. It was all the tornadoes it spawned.
Most stores are running out of gas and bottled water. I've got my camping gear ready to go, and my wife thinks we have enough in the pantry to hold us awhile.
Other than losing power for a few days, I don't expect much from the storm (this far inland).

Crack pipe vending machines found on Long Island - Story | WFLD
Police on Long Island are trying to track down the person who installed three crack pipe vending machines in two communities.
Suffolk County officials say one of the machines, offering pipes for $2.00, was on Middle Country Road in front of the Coram Commons shopping center.
The town of Coram had received complaints from residents about the vending machine on Sunday. A town official went to the machine, which dispensed one of the pipes.
Police held a news conference on Monday to say two other machines were also found. One was found in front of the Home Depot in Coram and another was found on a road in Medford.
The dispensers had the word "pens" displayed on the top of them. The ceramic pipe the machines dispensed also came with a filter to hold the crack. All of the machines have been removed and police continue to investigate.

On the one hand, I'm a little annoyed I never thought of that myself.
On the other hand, how do you make a profit selling crack pipes for $2, even before overhead? Is there some Alibaba supplier where you can get these in bulk for like 20 cents?
EDIT: having dome some research, it turns out that the answer is yes.
I really need to spend more time researching the wholesale drug-paraphernalia market. It's only a short train ride from here to the South Side, and there be lots 'o crackheads there.
