Nope. Never mentioned Bal'Mer.
But four footers were running down the main street of Chesapeake Beach.


I was just pointing that should one exist at all --
and unlikely situation given the shallow depth of the Bay -- it won't
exist
for
very long, certainly not long enough to make it even thirty feet up the
first
street it hits.

The main streets of Chesapeake Beach run parallel to the beach, sort of
like a boardwalk does. A substantial storm surge pushed up into the
town, with four foot waves on the surge. The surge was huge, the biggest
ever recorded on that part of the Bay, if my recollection is correct.

Got the picture now, JaxAss, or are you still going to maintain that an
event you know nothing about happened differently than it did, because
your peabrain cannot conjure it?

You still trolling for guys in that Speedo swimsuit? There's a couple of
righties in here who will give you a tumble.


On what basis, JaxAss? Are you saying that a huge surge didn't come
across at many points in Ches Bay last year? It is well-documented. I
saw the waves at Ches Beach. I was there. I live very, very closeby.
Surf was crashing on lawns a good half mile from the normal high water
mark.

Your clapped-out old sailbote...the one that wouldn't make it from
Milford to Port Jeff. If you could find Port Jeff.


hoary, that was not my boat, but rather someone else's. and we wereN'T going
from
milford to port jeff. and we had the stacks at PJ in sight. and we weren't
going to PJ.

Jax, let me translate Harry speak for you:

"I live in Maryland and if I say their were 5' waves running up and down the
street it has to be true.

Did you tell you about my Lobster Boat? It is better than anything you will
ever own. Did I tell you about the time I sailed around the horn? I did it
3 times, so try to beat that one.

.... and my wife is smarter than any woman you will ever meet. She is one of
the few social workers with a MD degree and a PHD... so there.

I can't refute what you are saying, so I am going to pretend I have you
filtered, and I will not respond to anything you say, unless I use my
anonymous Usenet account. "

not from a thunderstorm they haven't. t-storms don't last long enough to make

Unless, one is telling the story in a bar later.

Wow, Jax, I didn't realize you boated in the Chesapeake Bay! You seem to know
everything about everything, like Harry.

Poor dumb John...another fool suckered in by the dark side but living

You don't have to worry Harry, with your 35 foot Lobster boat a 5 foot
wave wouldn't even break over the bow.

Harry told us his 35 ft. Lobster Boat was tied up at his dock next to his
"Lake Estate". Since he also told us the water in his inlet was only 2 to
3' deep, he will have a lot to worry about when the 5' waves drop his boat
onto the rocks.

I was very surprised that a 35' Lobster Boat only had a draft of less than
2'. Must be because it was custom ordered. ; )

The latest forecast for Chesapeake Bay:

Tonight
NE wind increasing to 25 to 30 kt with gusts up to 40 kt...then N 35 to
40 kt with gusts up to 50 kt after midnight. Waves 2 ft...building to 5
ft after midnight. Widespread heavy rain and scattered tstms in the
evening tapering to scattered showers overnight.


Gusts up to 50 mph? On the Bay...

Too bad it'll be dark...watching five footers or more on the Bay would
be a sight to see.

It's not uncommon for 5-footers in English Bay. Calm out there this
weekend, though: tried fishing off the Pink Appts, anchored off Wreck
Beach and took Near Cove in, then motored over to Kits beach, anchored,
and took Near Cove to Bard On The Beach. Spent the night anchored, then
docked at Granville Island this afternoon for some shopping. Just got
back: What an Excellent "West Coast Weekend"!
