New island appears off coast of North Carolina's Outer Banks

The secret's out.

A new island has appeared off the coast of North Carolina's Cape Hatteras National Seashore, and unfortunately for locals, word is spreading -- fast.

The mile-long sandbar, dubbed "Shelly Island" for its plethora of seashells and colorful pebbles, has been forming and growing since late spring. Residents and tourists alike are starting to take notice.

It should disappear back into the ocean around August, when the season's first hurricane makes landfall....
