There will be a storm surge. Hurricanes are low pressure cells. When I
went through Betsy in Biloxi in 1965, we had about a 9' surge. And we were
75 miles from the eye. They will get both a surge from the low pressure,
and from the wind piling up the water. Same reason that Bengladesh has such
terrible floods. The prevailing winds blow the water in to land.

five foot waves riding on top of a storm surge on
top of water that may only be three to four feet deep

hoary, five foot waves can NOT exist in three to four foot deep water
without
breaking, therefore

out a half mile to
nearly a mile

can not happen.

nice try, hoary.

Harry,
When you post anything about your life, it is always proven to be a figment
of your imagination. Tell us again about your Lobster Boat, your doctor
doctor wife (you know the social worker), and the 3 times you sailed around
the horn.

I suppose it makes you feel better to repeat yourself like that,

but the fact remands that you are about as dumb as a post. Your ability
to comprehend is limited, and you simply aren't worth much effort when
an explanation is needed. What grade of school were you able to
complete? Did you get through high school? Were you the subject of
social promotion?

The childish insults have begun in earnest, signifying the point that
Harry
has lost this discussion...as usual.

Not at all. But you come across as an ignorant, uneducated dolt,
incapable of abstract thinking or reasoning. And since you refuse to
answer any questions about your life, your education, your work, one
might safely conclude you are an uneducated asshole.

Go ahead...post something that demonstates your thinking ability,
Dennis. Something original. Anything.

Looks to me like you wouldnt have an existence at all if it not for krause
because 99.99% of your posts here are nothing more than cheapshots aimed in his
direction. And you aren't the only one like that in this newsgroup. Some of you
need to find yourselfs a life because based upon what you do in here you ain't
got one.

You seem kind of pathetic to me and I bet to others too.

billie, one can not get 4 foot waves in 3 foot deep water. one can't get 4
foot waves even in 9 foot deep water. or even 20 foot deep water. or 30 foot
deep water.

it don't make a rip what the storm surge is or is not.

Harry,
Don't you hate having to use a sock puppet to respond to me. It would be so
much easier if you had not said you had me filtered. Obviously, my barbs
are getting under your skin. If my comments are cheap shots, what are
yours?

True, but it will be nothing but a weak tropical storm by the time it get to
his area. No storm surge from it Bill.

I have been looking for information on the devastation in the Bay area, the
storm surge wiping out downtown Baltimore, 5' waves funning through the
streets of Annapolis, a lobster boat being tossed about, homes falling into
the bay, or even a boat or two with scuff marks, whatever. Nothing, nada.
It must be a right wing conspiracy.

Small Craft Advisory
This Afternoon
W winds 15 to 20 kt...becoming S around 10 kt. Seas 4 to 5 ft

Report from Cape may

Boated in both places....2 weeks ago on Erie..with 13-15 mph winds out of
the NE........6-8 ft with 10 ft out of the break wall

Upper Chessy.........always flat - 2 ft .......the further south we go the
higher the waves.depending on wind

Anyone caught in a thunderstorm on the bay has probably been in 5-6 footers,
or
worse.

not from a thunderstorm they haven't. t-storms don't last long enough to make
5 foot let alone 6 foot waves.

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