In the wake of the hail storm that impacted northern Onslow County
earlier today, there may continue to be a risk of travel impacts
due to hail covered roads. Additionally, sudden reductions in
visibility will be possible where hail accumulated.
The areas at greatest risk for travel impacts will be portions of Highway
111 near the Albert J Ellis Airport in Richlands, as well as
portions of Highway 24 and Highway 258 through Richlands. Side
roads may be impacted as well. If traveling in this area, be
prepared to slow down due to reduced visibility or slippery roads
where accumulated hail remains. Be aware of potential road
closures as well.
