Someone pulled the plug

WASHINGTON, NC — A low-pressure cell off the coast and a high on to the northwest pushed a strong wind from the northwest all night and all day. That shoves the river to the sound and ocean.  It happens a couple of times a year, but it’s usually brutally cold during the event.  This one was more extreme than usual and included prettier weather.
