TS Fay & Miami area boaters?
"Ronnie McD." wrote in message ... "mmc" wrote in message ng.com... "www.IMRAN.com/boating/" wrote in message ... Flights were too full so I could not make it to Miami/Coral Gables to check on my boats before Fay passed by. My girlfriend went by today, but the marina won't let anyone go in (Matheson Hammock). I wonder how fellow mariners did in the Miami area thru this storm. Imran http://imran.com/boating/ http://imran.com/media/blog/ The space coast got whacked hardest. Winds weren't too bad, think the highest gust was around 70mph, but the thing parked over us and dumped up to 30 inches in parts of Brevard County. Some flooding but pretty minor compared to the Mid West earlier this year. A few tornadoes too. Big trailer park South of me called "Barefoot Bay" got whacked as usual by one that damaged 50+ and ruined 3. Something about all that aluminum in close proximity acts like a magnet for these things. I don't think Miami got much more than a few reporters ****ed that the storm didn't hit there. Vultures. MMC Barefoot Bay is a tornado magnet, tropical storm or just afternoon thunderstorm. The whole world could be storm free, but Barefoot Bay could find a tornado. You got that right. |

Hurricanes are good business for roofers, shutter companies and beer distributors! Is there anything that is NOT good business for beer distributors? Commiserate when hit, celebrate when it doesn't or the damage is slight.....
