4 Outer Banks Beach Homes Collapse Into the Ocean During Powerful Coastal Storm

Four oceanfront homes in the Outer Banks in North Carolina have collapsed into the Atlantic Ocean after the Carolinas and Virginia were hit by a powerful nor'easter. All four homes that collapsed were unoccupied and privately owned. The first house to give way Sunday morning was on Tower Circle Road, which saw several other collapses in Buxton last year. Two unoccupied houses later collapsed during the overnight hours, and another unoccupied house collapsed about 9 a.m. Monday morning.
