RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - Several ferry routes in North Carolina will shut down operations as Hurricane Michael is expected to enter the state with tropical storm-force winds and heavy rain.
State officials said in a news release that several ferries will make one round trip Thursday morning.
The ferries between Ocracoke and Cedar Island will make runs at 7:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m., while the Ocracoke to Swan Quarter ferry will make a run at 7 a.m. and return to Ocracoke at 10 a.m.
