Hurricane Bill - interesting path

[Back Beach]

Watch out on the rocks this weekend. Higher than usual tides coupled with a big swell can be quite dangerous. Even if the storm misses us way east, there's still going to be some impact.

I hate these %$%$%$%$ing things...this is headed right at us. I hope it goes away. Then again, it could screw up Obama's vacation and that is worth something.

Al Roker says headed out to sea! You alarmists better gas up the car and stock up on water, milk, bread, batteries and candles!

This will light up the choggie bite. I cant wait.

At this point one of two things can happen.
1) The storm hits us head on, we batten down the hatches and ride it out. the fishing will be shut off for about a week while we all go into disaster recovery mode.
2) It goes out to sea as the current weather models predict. It churns up the surf, might create a late season algae bloom (red-tide), and may even push some of those large bass off of the tuna grounds back into the shallower shores.
Either way it'll be a change in what has been a very boring summer.
If it weren't for fresh water and my kayak, I wouldn't have much to brag about.
