This picture shows what we think of smokers in our town.
Next picture is of St. Mary's in Bport.
Last is off the road around the Marina.
I didn't take any pictures of the skate park where kids were swimming and diving into the water.
I still don't have power but the neighbor's do so I ran an extension cord for the some lights and to keep the refrig. running.
Hope everyone else was as lucky as me.

Irene just prior to making landfall in NC....
I bet they don't think they got hyped...
lots of trees down here in Orleans, still a lot of power outages, some structural damage, even a couple of small fires, from blown transformers.. and such.. not much rain, but we sure got some wind.. I, for one, am convinced that this was a "real storm".....
but, I am sure the conspiracy terrorists will say different.

the ramp and breakwater there were completely underwater. was thinking about walking down past the summer homes to see what it looked like at the point but thought better of it since it was getting dark. could see waves coming up to the road too.

Raise whatever flag you want (just don't raise the hurricane flags)...this was no hurricane:
we get winds like this in Nov and throughout the winter
We never had that 747 like roar you get when a hurricane passes by. Most of the inland reporters with handheld anemometers were hard-pressed to find wind speed >15mph
This plot is the windiest place around these parts
Karl...that is a great photo.

Most anemometers including BUZM3's can't handle instantaneous gusts and never report true wind speed. |
