There's a tropical storm watch along the North Carolina coast as Danny continues to churn out in the Atlantic. The storm isn't expected to make landfall, but there are warnings of high surf and strong rip currents along the Outer Banks this weekend. Sheila Balance lives in Frisco. She says she isn't too worried about Danny.
"I've been here for 25 years, and made it through Hurricane Emily with a couple of feet of water in my house and Isabelle, we faired pretty good in Frisco with Isabelle and just kind of batten down the hatches, get some water and canned foods and hope for the best -- make sure you've got plenty of batteries."
Balance says if Danny was coming in for a direct hit, she would probably board up her windows and park her vehicles on higher ground.
