Storm Hits Goldsboro, Aug. 26, 1924

Goldsboro Is Hit by Part of Storm That Raged Along Coast

Goldsboro and in fact the entire eastern section of the state yesterday and last night felt the effects of the storm which had for 24 hours been raging up and down the Atlantic coast, from Cape Hatteras to the Bermudas.

In this city the effects of the disturbance were seen in a heavy downpour of rain accompanied at times by more or less wind. Further east, around New Bern, Morehead City, and Beaufort, and points nearer the coast, the disturbance was said to have been of greater intensity.

Last night, weather bureau reports were to the effect that the storm was lessening in intensity.
