With the approach of Hurricane Florence, Amtrak canceled its Florida-bound trains on Tuesday. Yesterday, CSX crews were removing the crossing arms yesterday and the signal system is shut-down. There were a few CSX trains yesterday, but I haven't heard any today. I think the CSX mainline is far enough inland to avoid major damage, but the Wilmington line can expect some high winds and water.

As of right now, 9/15/18 - 5:00 pm, the eye of the storm is located 25 miles east of us. However, it has been downgraded to a huge rain-storm. We have some minor wind damage and a lot of rain, but we are so blessed that the storm didn't do more.
