(Manteo, North Carolina-AP) -- Residents of some areas of North Carolina's Outer Banks have been told to leave their homes before noon.
Officials in Dare County have issued a mandatory evacuation order. Authorities say residents and visitors on Hatteras Island must make final preparations to leave as Hurricane Isabel gets closer.
