My fam has been sitting on a small buildable lot very near the Bourne Bridge on the mainland side since the early 1950s. I'm tempted to do something with it someday just for weeks like this last one. The funny thing is all the existing houses are at ground level grandfathered in, but now the code requires stilts like 12' up. All the better for that extra bit of wind.
Was more of a comment regarding the afternoon as a whole. And yeah the air always moves better near the ocean. Probably 9 mos a year I could hard pass on it, but we can all admit the coast is great in the summer.
I won't speak for other places but the combination of humidity and lack of air movement in these parts is the absolute worst. Buggy. Food molding. Wet.
Horrendous.
God I love this location for severe

But seriously though I doubt this one verifies. Classic SPS event IMO
About 10 years ago I caught 7 bats in my house until I figured out how they were getting in. Still have PTSD from the first night I woke up to one swooping back and forth over my head in the bedroom. But by the end I was a full on ninja capturing those things.
Anyway, beneficial creatures, but no do not have a bathouse.
the nam was pretty often the first model to sniff out that the mid-levels are going to torch way inland... I dunno, that's my impression at least, others would be better qualified.
