I just googles Jacksonville, NC... OMG, Get out of dodge!!

That storm surge is going to push right up New River and inundate the place. I'd worry about gathering all my irreplaceable items, taking them with me and heading southwest for several days. Take a vacation with the wife, and bring all the food you might be trying to save with a generator with your grill.
