I'm not that big on geography of the northeast, so I didn't realize Philadelphia would be in on this too. Anybody there to give us updates?

Is the first hurricane landfall in the U.S since Ike in 2008.

Automated station at Cape Lookout reported 954.0mb at 7:00AM (obs are only once per hour). Radar velocities are about to switch at the cape, so it looks like landfall at around 7:20AM.
