The storm surge from Hurricane Isaias put her first floor under a more than a foot of water.

Isaias briefly intensified to a Category 1 hurricane Monday, August 3 before making an official landfall at Ocean Isle Beach in Brunswick County at 11:10 p.m.

Damaging winds and likely tornadoes spun out from the storm, including one in Bertie County that tragically killed two people and sent about a dozen others to the hospital.

Hurricane Isaias brought category one winds and storm surge as passed offshore of the Grand Strand Monday night.

A combination of the high tide and storm surge from Hurricane Isaias appears to have resulted in the deaths of over 100 baby sea turtles in the Cherry Grove area of North Myrtle Beach.

Locals and tourists also said the storm surge brought about a foot of water about two blocks away from the beach.

We’re keeping a close eye on Isaias, which made landfall along the North Carolina coast Monday night.
