LATEST UPDATE: Hurricane Matthew Moves East of Wilmington

NOAA: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at4+shtml/213512.shtml?5-daynl
Hurricane Matthew, Category 1 Storm as of 11:44PM on Saturday, October 8, 2016.

From the National Weather Service in Wilmington, NC

UPDATED:  2:46 PM ADVISORY — SUNDAY, OCT. 9, 2016            

The National Weather Service has canceled all alerts, watches and warnings for the late unlamented Hurricane Matthew. Cleanup and power restoration are proceeding today, aided by cool dry weather (some would call it a perfect fall day).

Not all power will be restored immediately. Caution is advised when near downed power lines, which may still be active. In many areas, flood waters have not receded and river crests may not have reached maximum.
