Mother ocean cuts through whenever she feels like it, no matter how many 2000 lb sand bags the NC highway division stacks up. sometimes taking out the road and sometimes just covering it in a foot or so of water.There are some other areas that get frequent over-wash but none like that spot.If you google "mirlo beach home" you can see some videos of waves breaking underneath those houses.I surf, fish, spearfish and free-dive in the outer banks and I spend more time looking at sand bars and near shore bathymetry than most people.Hope to hear from Y'all soon
