Getting pretty good surf here - spray flying about 20 feet above the rocks on the beach - we live around 60 feet from the Atlantic, the rest of the clan is about 30 feet from it - I'm guessing at around 45-50 MPH gusts, 30-35 MPH sustained - solid overcast with low, fast-flying scud. Rain is falling vertically, and we're just starting to get it.

There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Thank you sir!
So far wind seems to have moderated, enough to move the tree branches around some on a continuous basis. Rain comes and goes in bands. Solid overcast with winds out of the NE. We have beach grass all over the upper portions of the beach below the house, as expected - but it's also in the street behind the house, showing you how high the water got in the street. There is a seawall about 100 feet or so to the south of us, where the beachfront takes a little jog - there is a series of concrete highway barriers there, fronted by large rocks. When a good sea gets going, like now, it will climb over the rocks and seawall via spray, and take anything in the water with it - I saw a 2X4 on the road behind the house. Big danger around here right now is flying FOD, so far all I've seen is the occasional palm frond or fairly small branch. Barring unforeseen events I think we've weathered this one all right.
