idiot

grady white 25 is a stout boat but not that stout,

It's now looking like we aren't going to get hit as hard as originally thought. should be out of hurricane force winds up this way if the current track holds....

there are old sailors and there are bold sailors but no old bold sailors. Stupid

best of luck gentlemen, stay safe

Nancy and I toured that ship when it was in Newburyport last summer

I hope his insurance agent doesnt see this video!!!

And here's what happened a few minutes later!!

This is a picture of the Bounty I took earlier this season as she was tied up in Fairhaven.

Had one power flash already. Tide this morning at Brewers across the way was pretty full, I've to think some of the houses down on Riverside drive are going to take water.

lights are flickering here in east fal.

My house is at 710 feet above sea level. Just had a 64 MPH gust.

wow, and the storm is still far away.

Did you lube your anemometer with the yellow or red Rocket Fuel?

Be careful. No custom needlefish for you on the Block if you are bad.

I was up at first light for a while the western sky was bright pink. Did anyone else see this?

pink sky at morning,
sailors say #^&#^&#^&#^& this

That's high altitude RI; Mt. Jerimoth, the highest point in the state, is 812 feet. I'm in Narragansett and the water's over the sea wall; the Avenues and Cronin's are barricaded; blustery at the PJ Light. Hate seeing this valuable fishing time washed out.

saw that boat go thru the canal last week while I was fishin.

We actually have a bit of a micro climate. It will be raining 4 miles from me in Harrisville and snowing like all get out at my house.

WOW sea wall at gansett on weather channel. insane at LOW TIDE!

Bring it On!

NWS reports main wind core is 2 hours out from the mainland

I think thats my neighbor

Rain is insignificant right now at my house. Sustained winds are also pretty low but we are getting some good gusts. Forecast says next 8 hours or so will be our worst.

Everyone seems concerned about tonights high tide in the Bay. Nothing people can do about the flood waters but get out of the way. I hope its minimal.
