In a disturbing trend along the Outer Banks of North Carolina, three houses have collapsed into the ocean since Friday, marking a significant increase in property loss due to coastal erosion. Video footage captured the dramatic moments of homes tumbling into the Atlantic Ocean, with the latest collapse occurring Tuesday afternoon in Rodanthe. This week alone has seen a total of three houses fall victim to the relentless tide, which has claimed a staggering ten homes in this area over the last four years. Local officials have advised beachgoers to avoid affected areas as debris from the collapses poses hazards. The National Park Service has been actively managing cleanup efforts while monitoring additional properties at risk from high winds and surf conditions.
