Isaias Strength Creates Unusual Storm Challenge For Emergency Plan
New Hanover County Emergency Management head Steven Still calls Isaias an anomaly as it strengthened before landfall and caused power outages in record numbers. He notes no shelter openings were necessary due to pandemic guidance urging personal emergency planning. Duke Energy officials say 70 percent of New Hanover and 65 percent of Onslow lost power, with recovery hampered by pandemic staffing. Local business leaders expect cautious, steady rebuilding as authorities warn residents to stay prepared for next storms.
