    Epic aurora!!!!

    Even from a ways away, you can see massive breakers off Siesta Key beach. Tops are getting sheared off by the wind as they roll in.

    I'm sorry to hear it. I certainly hope she comes through okay. It will be a scary lesson for her at the very least. My grandmother would've been suicidal to stay. She is literally on the beach on the third floor. I suspect I'll be going down there to try to salvage whatever is left in a week or two.

    Well, it took some serious cajoling, but we finally prevailed on my 94 year old grandmother to leave her stuff and GTFO of Siesta Key. Her building will likely be toast after tomorrow.

    My grandmother has had a beachfront condo in Siesta Key for sixty years and had never seen storm surge reach her building until Helene. Crazy to think that she will likely see something far worse Wednesday...or rather won't see. It took some convincing, but we finally got her to go inland today. The town is still a mess from what I hear.

    Oh hell, just seeing this. My grandmother's 4th floor condo on the beach of Siesta Key would be toast with a lot of these runs. And just a week after the worst surge she's ever seen in the 60 years she's been down there. Yikes.

    My grandma is in Siesta Key on the beach. Wild flooding considering how far from landfall they were. My great uncle’s villa nearby had feet of water in it. First time it’s flooded since they bought it in the early Fifties.

    He's a pro. I'm sure he's well situated.

    Siesta Key beach cam is pretty wild. Water over the whole beach and waves occasionally bumping the lifeguard stations. Glad my grandmother decided to take shelter inland.

    Impressive wind on Fishers driving the water into the Sound. The tide is several feet above normal. Had to rescue the paddle board before it floated away.
  11. Hoth
    Superb weather today. The Sound was still warm enough for a nice long swim.

    A few months of dews is fine by me. Gets old by September through, especially 75 degree ones.
  13. Hoth
    These dews can eff right off. I'm done with this Key West shit.

    Any reason we should keep an eye on that convection in the Bahamas? To my weenie eye it has a slight cyclonic tendency. Probably sheared to hell though.

    Wtf is with all this Mumbai mumbo jumbo?
  16. Hoth
    Good. I’m tired of mowing every four days. Grass just won’t stop.

    It's quite rare to contract, but life altering at the least if you get it. My uncle's mother got EEE and it made her a vegetable the rest of her life.

    I was rather astounded to see several maples with rather robust color driving around this morning. I'm not ready.
  19. Hoth
    Evidently Trillium has started doing limited distribution.
  20. Hoth
    Can confirm. ‘89 was wild here.
  21. Hoth
    Crazy close flashbangs. Wow!
  22. Hoth
    Thank God. It's been a little Stein around here.
  23. Hoth
    Yeah Bob did wild damage out here. Docks smashes, maples flattened, beaches rearranged.

    A friend of my cousin was spearfishing off Race Rock and had a juvenile great white come at him recently. Had to stab it several times to get it to back off. Probably attracted to the fish he had tied to his belt. First time I've ever heard of great whites being around Fishers.

    Any decent surf coming in the next day or two? Would love to catch a few waves before heading back to the mainland.
