• Storm Surge
  • Hope it hits at low tide
    • The prediction above is for Cat 3
    • She's speeded up a little, which may put her at low tide in Buzzards Bay. But at the cost of higher winds!
      • Are you staying put Dave?
        • Yup. Brownell was filled up too soon.
  • Here's an interesting Storm Surge Prediction site...
    • No, don't want to see that, thanks.
    • Surge Models
    • Here's a site more specific to Irene
  • I saw the dock master looking at the height of the pilings last night.
  • Not in Maine, Todd
    • There is some worry about that high tide in our harbor.
      • Tomorrow's Saturday anyway! It'll be full up as a matter of course.
        • True. I don't know what I'll find looking for a hidey hole out there.
      • We'll go down to prep Rita P in about an hour
        • I did the initial prep on Seaquestor this afternoon...
          • The harbormaster here called around to say all dinghies must be off the town pier tomorrow.
            • How do you deal with the beach crowds?
              • They have more in Boston on New Years Day to experience Maine swimming!
        • Tuesday is a much better day to start a vacation.
          • We'll be moving the trash cans, which should leave room for your jeep!
          • If they let me take off...
  • Storm Surge?? Moved the boat, glad I did.
