Azuras Wrath+FollowHillsborough apartments.Hillsborough North Carolina update after Tropical Storm Chantal. I live in the second floor of an apartment I am very lucky I do, but for my neighbors on the first floor are dealing with actual sewage problems and the complex will not turn off the water. This is a very unsafe and uninhabitable place for these people. They could get very sick from even breathing in all this sewage in their home. This is going on day two for this problem. We shouldn’t have to live like this when we pay for a habitable home. This is outrageous and down right disgusting. Not to mention we have been without water for two days now in a heat advisory. I myself have been without a/c (something that is advertised on website of apartments) for two weeks. I have serious health issues when it comes to heat and this heat wave isn’t helping on top of not having ac or water now. Pinewood station a place where nothing gets fixed and the residents are living in actual sewage. #Hillsborough #NorthCarolina #UnsafeArea 30Share

Steven Arnold+Follow🏞️ Kill Devil Hill | Wright Brothers National MemorialHave you heard of Kill Devil Hill? It's a unique island chain on the eastern side of North Carolina, similar to Key West. I decided to check it out and was surprised to discover that it's actually the place where the Wright Brothers invented the airplane. It has now been turned into the Wright Brothers National Memorial, and it was really cool to hear the history and walk on the same grounds where the first flights took place, even in the rain. It felt like a pilgrimage to the birthplace of aviation. ✈️ A Journey of Human Flight It's incredible to think that it took thousands of years for humans to achieve their dream of flying, yet from the invention of the airplane by the Wright Brothers to the moon landing in just 66 years, it's truly miraculous. #FirstTimeFlying #Airplane #USATravel #USATourism #NorthCarolina #WrightBrothers #USAAdventure #FlyingHigh #MoonLanding #OffTheBeatenPath18712Share
TrendyToucan+Followhow did my backyard explode with color before spring even started?Last week, I walked outside and nearly tripped over a patch of daffodils. In February! I always thought you had to wait for spring, but nope—North Carolina has its own rules. I tossed some bulbs in the ground last fall, barely remembering where, and now they’re showing off like they own the place. Turns out, mixing early bloomers like crocuses and hellebores with your usual suspects keeps the garden lively even when it’s chilly. I water just enough to keep the soil damp and toss a little mulch to keep roots cozy. Every morning, I peek out the window and get a little jolt of happiness from those pops of color. It’s like my yard’s personal cheer squad, months before everyone else joins in. #gardening #northcarolina #flowers00Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowDeadly Ants in NC? Here’s the BuzzAsian needle ants are moving into North Carolina, and their sting can be seriously nasty—think needle jab-level pain and, for some, even a dangerous allergic reaction. These sneaky ants love hanging out in mulch, wood piles, and even playgrounds. They look like skinny, black ants with hot dog-shaped butts (seriously). If you spot one, don’t panic, but keep an eye out—especially if you’re gardening or have kids and pets running around! #AsianNeedleAnt #NorthCarolina #PestAlert #Science00Share
martinezlaura+FollowMassive Shark Spotted Near NC Beaches!A 14-foot, 1,653-pound great white shark named “Contender” just popped up near North Carolina’s Pamlico Sound after weeks off the radar! This giant is the biggest male great white ever tracked in the Atlantic and is basically the ocean’s ultimate heavyweight. Scientists think he disappeared to feast and fuel up for a 1,000-mile journey north. Imagine swimming with THAT guy lurking nearby! Would you still hit the beach? #GreatWhiteShark #SharkTracking #NorthCarolina #Science50Share
john05+FollowWhite Traffic Lights Are Coming?!North Carolina might be the first state to test a FOUR-color traffic light—yep, adding a white light to the classic red, yellow, and green. The new “white phase” is designed to help autonomous vehicles (AVs) take over at intersections, making traffic smoother for everyone. When the white light’s on, just follow the car in front of you (especially if it’s an AV). Researchers say this could mean way less waiting at lights and even save fuel. Would you trust a white light to guide your drive? #TrafficTech #AutonomousVehicles #Innovation #NorthCarolina #SmartCities #Transportation00Share
Timothy Weaver+FollowScored a $10 Apple Watch at This Store?!Ever wanted to feel like a kid on Christmas morning while shopping? At Where Ya Bin in Matthews, NC, you can dig through giant bins of returned and overstock goods—think Apple gadgets, designer bags, and kitchen gear—for as little as $1 to $10, depending on the day. The catch? Prices drop as the week goes on, but the best stuff disappears fast. It’s part shopping, part treasure hunt, and all about the thrill of the find. Pro tip: bring gloves and a game plan! #DealHunter #BargainShopping #MoneyHacks #NorthCarolina #RetailTherapy #Shopping131Share
David Hoover+Follow5,000+ People Picked 000 in the Lottery?!Imagine hitting the lottery... only to find out 5,419 other people picked the exact same numbers! That’s what happened in North Carolina when triple zeroes (000) came up in the Pick 3 game. Over 5,000 winners split a $2 million prize, which means each person walked away with $250 or $500 depending on their ticket. Not exactly life-changing, but hey, a win’s a win! Would you ever pick 000 for your numbers? #LotteryWin #Pick3 #Jackpot #LotteryLuck #NorthCarolina #Finance80Share
