CAROL COSTELLO, CNN ANCHOR: Of course, we're keeping a close eye for you on Hurricane Isabel. She's about 450 miles off the North Carolina coast now, still expected to hit tomorrow around noon time. So let's go live to Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina. Sean Callebs standing by just waiting -- good morning, Sean.</s>SEAN CALLEBS, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Good morning, Carol. Indeed, just standing by waiting. And you can see behind me the sun's popping up. We'll give you a pretty good look out there at the Atlantic as it comes in and slaps against this barrier island. It is shaping up to be an absolutely wonderful morning. There's some pretty good sustained winds out here, maybe 15 to 20 knots, peaking a little bit higher than that. But the information we have, this has nothing to do with Isabel. She is still, as you mentioned, 24 to 32 hours away, churning off the coast here. But without question, people are taking this storm seriously. Tens of thousands of people have already been evacuated and the mayor of Kill Devil Hills, where we are now, said that basically this morning people are going to have to make the decision whether they're going to board up and make the dash into the mainland or they're going to try and ride out this storm on the island. And just, this is a town of about 6,400. About half of those so far have sought shelter and higher ground. The big concern is you don't want to be making a run for it at the height of this storm or when this storm surge starts coming in, because the roads leading off this island are very narrow, very small and that could lead, Carol, to obviously a tremendous tragedy.</s>COSTELLO: Oh, yes.
