On 12 November, the low stalled off the North Carolina/Virginia coast where it 

 remained through 14 November before moving to the north. Wave heights mea- 

 sured at the nearshore Waverider (gage No. 610) were in excess of 3 m from 

 12-14 November, while water levels remained almost continuously above the mean 

 water level, with an extreme of 1.49 m above the local mean sea level. After 

 the storm, major seaward shifts of all contour lines between +3 m and -7 m 

 were apparent, with a maximum shift of 80 m occurring on the -4 m contour at 

 the 300-m position on the baseline. The ever-present hole at the end of the 

 FRF pier deepened considerably from -8 m to almost -10 m and expanded to the 

 southwest about 50 m. In addition, a 4-m-deep trench, 75 m wide and extending 

 325 m north and 75 m south of the pier, was created. Survey data collected 

 on a profile line 516 m south of the pier show some dramatic changes to the 

 profile. On the foreshore (70 m to 110 m) , a volume loss of -49 cu m/m 

 occurred between elevations of +3.5 m to -0.5 m. A large portion of this 

 (44 cu m/m) was apparently deposited in the nearshore (i.e., the 110- to 

 180-m) portion of the profile. A 78-m seaward shift of the storm bar re- 

 sulted in a net loss of 10 cu m/m, with a net average volume loss to the pro- 

 file of -15 cu m/m.

16. A low formed over South Carolina on 24 November and moved north 

 and deepened in the vicinity of Cape Hatteras on 25 November. High waves per- 

 sisted during both days. 



5-6 December (Figure D16) 



17. A low-pressure system formed over North Carolina and moved off- 

 shore, producing winds 6 to 12 m/sec and 2.6-m wave heights.
