Waves Associated with Hurricane Ernesto Cause Destruction

Hurricane Ernesto left a trail of devastation, particularly in North Carolina, where a home collapsed into the ocean.

The storm brought dangerous surf to the North Carolina coast, resulting in this dramatic loss.

The National Weather Service warns of continued dangerous conditions along the coast as Ernesto lingers.

Waves Led to a Dramatic Collapse

The impact of Hurricane Ernesto’s waves proved catastrophic for one North Carolina home.

The powerful waves pounded the shoreline leading to the collapse of the structure.

Footage from a video taken on Friday captured the harrowing moment when the house was swept away into the Atlantic Ocean.

Ernesto's Wide-Ranging Impact

Hurricane Ernesto affected more than just North Carolina.

• The storm also caused significant damage in Bermuda.
• Strong swells impacted the coastline.

As Ernesto moves further away from land, it is expected to gradually weaken.
