Hurricane Dorian took its last shot at the U.S. Friday morning after marching through the Caribbean and up the Southeast coast.
The National Hurricane Center said the Category 1 storm made landfall over Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, with wind gusts near 90 mph, its first landfall since causing at least 30 deaths in the Bahamas.
Dorian was causing life-threatening flash floods and up to 6 feet of storm surge. Thirteen tornadoes touched down in North Carolina Thursday.
The storm also gave coastal South Carolina a beating, and Charleston was starting to survey the damage Friday morning.
Dorians eye passed within 55 miles, bringing heavy rain and wind gusts of up to more than 70 mph.
