Default High wind + big waves =

Local piers take a hit from the passing hurricane and leave boats in shambles.

WOW!

Those are some Nasty Pictures!

Where were these pictures taken?
Looks like Indian River Bay...

And... What are you doing posting pictures? I'd imagine today is a very busy day for you! Making money hand over fist!!!


We had no damage to our boat. Just snapped a line (Thick one also). Lucky the boat was Double Tied yesterday.

I'm VERY VERY Lucky I took my CC out - or it would be Toast right now at White House Beach.

Looks like Indian River Bay... The typical site of damage: IR at the Serendipty RR pier and misc. OO piers.

And... What are you doing posting pictures? I'd imagine today is a very busy day for you! Making money hand over fist!!! Were not as crazy as the Long Neck two . Our junk is always on sale and some of it is FREE! We also keep the BS to the size of our fish

I guess I had better go get the camera out of the jeep and tell my little AI adventure story I had yesterday.

Okay, I drove down to the island and there was a TORRENTIAL down-poor with an incredibly strong N/E wind. It was crazy going across the Verrazano bridge. Here are a few pics from the South Ocean Beach Parking lot. I did brave the (what used to be) boardwalk to the benches on the other side of the dunes. The water was RIGHT THERE! I could have fished from the benches! :-)

I had so much sand plastered to me, in my ears, shoes, eyes, teeth... It was crazy.

wow, thats crazy, and all we had here was moderate winds and a BUNCH of rain. The wind wasn't even strong enough to do anything more than knock over my garbage can (which I refused to bring in from the curb because it was too wet) and knocked over the landing net that was still leaning up against the front of the house from unpacking the canada trip

Two pencil-sized twigs off the tree, couple inches of rain and 57 degrees.
But yeah, fairly windy but not enough to push my truck around.

Scott, glad you made out alright.
Sam, you nut!
Ok, so why didn't ya get a shot of the water?

Let me tell you something... It was like running up hill with 50mph winds blowing me sideways with sand and rain. It was almost laughable. Once I got to the top, I could barely look at the ocean (which was a dirty yellow color). When I got back in the jeep, I was soaked from head to toe with sand and water. Best 5 minutes I've had in months!

She wanted me to take her back out there! I said, not right now, as I had just taken a shower.

sam, try taxiing a 100 foot wide 100 foot long 25 foot tall airplane with 50 mph wind gusts, that was freakin awesome airplane bouncing all over the place wanting to flip, I would do it again in a heartbeat, I wish I could have gone to AI though. wanted to see the 15 foot waves, I did make it out there thursday, and when Isabell came through two years ago.
