a 36 foot wave breaks about when water depth becomes less than 60 feet.
Wonderful. But you said that it's impossible to get 36' waves hundreds
of miles from the coast. The water at station 42040, only 64 nm from
the coast is 237.7 meters deep. So are you *finally* able to admit you
were wrong when you said:
they _may_ forecast 36 foot waves in the Fla panhandle, but the water is
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaay to shallow to support 36 foots for hundreds of miles away from the Fla
panhandle.
This should be interesting.

It looks like that buoy was getting rocked around so much it couldn't
record the wave heights at the peak of the storm. The highest it did
record was 52.5 feet.
