Five footers...on the Bay?
 

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.

Really? 5 footers in Sandusky Bay off Lake Erie are not uncommon. Why are
you so excited about 5 footers in the Chesapeake? I would guess the Bay has
some pretty nasty seas at times...5 footers are certainly not nasty although
the winds forecasted certainly are.

Have you ever been out in anything other than 1-2 footers Harry?

The Bay is relatively shallow, Dennis, and where we are, not very wide.
There are significant portions of the shoreline barely above sea level.
With any kind of wind, five foot waves riding on top of a storm surge on
top of water that may only be three to four feet deep out a half mile to
nearly a mile in some places leads to an interesting visual.

Dennis, at best, and I mean at best, you may have been the owner of a
boat that rarely left the dock, according to your own posts. I suspect
if you were out in the ocean or even this Bay on a rough day, you'd
brownstain your shorts.

Pethaps the next time you have a really nasty storm on Lake Erie, you
and your wife should go out in it for some fun. Be sure to let the rest
of us know how the two of you do.

Got a real name, Dennis?
Got an occupation, Dennis?
Got a college degree, Dennis?
Got a working brain, Dennis?

Didn't think so.

the Chesa is shallow, so five footers -- if they might develop, and the weather
reporters have not been exagerating a mite -- would be short, steep and
breaking. could be a handful for most boats.

hoary has not even *seen* 1-2 footers.

As is Lake Erie and Sandusky Bay. 5 footers on either of them are not
uncommon.

With any kind of wind, five foot waves riding on top of a storm surge on
top of water that may only be three to four feet deep out a half mile to

What sort of storm surge is expected on the Bay? I do not recall any talk
about storm surges on the Chesapeake Bay resulting from Charley. Got a
link?

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,

I know you don't know a lot about boating, but 2' ft waves, building to 5
ft. waves is in the main body, Only a fool would assume the narrow shallow
creeks and inlets would experience the same waves that the main body of the
wave. If you look at the forecast for the inlets, you would see they are
expect 2' to 3' waves.

The forecast for Baltimore is "NE WIND INCREASING TO 25 TO 30 KT WITH GUSTS
UP TO 40 KT. WAVES 2 TO 3 FT. A CHANCE OF TSTMS THROUGH THE NIGHT. RAIN AND
TSTMS TAPERING OFF LATE.

You obviously never saw the photos of our yard that I posted about two
years ago. While there are many areas along the Bay that are indeed only
a couple of feet higher than the water reaches at high tide, we're on
higher, safer ground, with no erosion problem.

Never been to the Bay, eh, dumfoch? Even some of those on higher ground
are nervous every time there is a significant storm. Their houses sit on
cliffs that are subject to erosion and eventually will collapse into the
Bay. They're not on land I'd ever buy, but it does provide a
spectacular view while it lasts.

Look up Calvert Cliffs. Wait..you're not that clever. He

There are houses on cliffs adjacent to these where the geology is
precisely the same.

So? We have plenty of similar cliffs along the perimeter of the Great Lakes
and their islands.

Unless their houses are now to/near the edges of those cliffs (because of
erosion) then there is nothing to worry about.

All bodies of water see storms. All land along those bodies of water erodes
over the years. Been so since the beginning of time.

So what is your point Krause? To deflect the fact that you are afraid of 5
foot waves and anticipate a tremendous storm surge from this tropical storm?
He-he-he...me thinks so.

Yawn

If someone's house is in danger of falling into the bay, it is time to move
the house. There are very few things I am sure of, but the bay will see 2
to 5 ft. waves many times in the near future.

From Oswego New York, 3 to 5 foot waves are common on lake Ontario, and you

I agree. In fact 5-7 footers on Lake Erie (a shallow lake) have been common
this spring/summer.

Most boat owners have been in 5-7 footers. I know I have. Hell, some
storms result in 8-12 footers, sometimes much much higher.

Poor Harry has never even seen 5 footers though as he claims it would be a
sight to see for him.

Let's try to put this in perspective. When we lived in Florida, five
foot ocean waves were common. We live adjacent to Chesapeake Bay now,
and five foot waves are not common. We normally see ones to twos in our
area. It isn't the waves per se that trouble me today, because I am not
out on the water and won't be until the weather calms. What concerns me
is the storm surge. It could prove troublesome to those on the
lower-lying areas of the Bay, some of which are near us. We have many
property owners and towns and marinas barely above sea level, and a
substantial surge will make a mess. We normally do NOT have much of a
surge here, absent a major storm.

I guess this no longer is a newsgroup where anything abstract can be
discussed without the usual pack of assholes (I'm not putting you in
this group, Joe) immediately jumping on and seeing if they can destroy
the discussion.

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.

Joseph,
I have been on small lakes in a storm with 20 knot winds, that had 3 to 5
ft. waves, but they scare the dickens out of our boy Harry. On the other
hand, I would love to see a body of water, 2 to 3 ft. deep making waves 3 to
5ft deep. I am not sure, but I don't think it is physically possible.

Harry,

I know you don't know a lot about boating, but 2' ft waves, building to
5
ft. waves is in the main body, Only a fool would assume the narrow
shallow
creeks and inlets would experience the same waves that the main body of
the
wave. If you look at the forecast for the inlets, you would see they
are
expect 2' to 3' waves.

The forecast for Baltimore is "NE WIND INCREASING TO 25 TO 30 KT WITH
GUSTS
UP TO 40 KT. WAVES 2 TO 3 FT. A CHANCE OF TSTMS THROUGH THE NIGHT. RAIN
AND
TSTMS TAPERING OFF LATE.

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

Too bad it'll be dark...watching five footers or more on the Bay

be a sight to see.






Really? 5 footers in Sandusky Bay off Lake Erie are not uncommon.
Why
are
you so excited about 5 footers in the Chesapeake? I would guess the
Bay
has
some pretty nasty seas at times...5 footers are certainly not nasty
although
the winds forecasted certainly are.

Have you ever been out in anything other than 1-2 footers Harry?




The Bay is relatively shallow, Dennis, and where we are, not very
wide.
There are significant portions of the shoreline barely above sea
level.
With any kind of wind, five foot waves riding on top of a storm surge
on
top of water that may only be three to four feet deep out a half mile
to
nearly a mile in some places leads to an interesting visual.

Dennis, at best, and I mean at best, you may have been the owner of a
boat that rarely left the dock, according to your own posts. I suspect
if you were out in the ocean or even this Bay on a rough day, you'd
brownstain your shorts.

Pethaps the next time you have a really nasty storm on Lake Erie, you
and your wife should go out in it for some fun. Be sure to let the
rest
of us know how the two of you do.

Got a real name, Dennis?
Got an occupation, Dennis?
Got a college degree, Dennis?
Got a working brain, Dennis?

Didn't think so.

I hope you don't have any 2 - 5 ft. waves where you boat, gosh almighty,

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

Harry,

Read 99% of your posts, and you contribute nothing to the NG, except
personal insults.

Remember, you harvest what you sow, and when someone lives in a glass house,
one should not throw stones. ; )

Is it possible you telling someone you would like to see a bus hit them, or
that you would shot someone with your gun to keep them away from you, could
possible have any influence as to how you are treated in this NG?

As is Lake Erie and Sandusky Bay. 5 footers on either of them are not
uncommon.

What sort of storm surge is expected on the Bay? I do not recall any talk
about storm surges on the Chesapeake Bay resulting from Charley. Got a
link?


I finally figured you out Jim. Krause pays to to post. That way, his posts are
discussed more widely than they might be. That's it isn't it? You and your sock
puppets are foils for krause.

How much are you paid? Is it enough to life off of? Enquiring minds want to know.

foot ocean waves were common. We live adjacent to Chesapeake Bay now,
and five foot waves are not common

hoary, don't worry about it. the chesa is too shallow to support five foot
waves that aren't breaking, and breaking waves don't make much distance.

I have been on small lakes in a storm with 20 knot winds, that had 3 to 5
ft. waves,

no you haven't. 20 knots winds take a long time and long fetch to get to be 3
to 5 foot waves, and even then you need water most usually deeper than is found
in a "small lake".

On the other
hand, I would love to see a body of water, 2 to 3 ft. deep making waves 3 to
5ft deep. I am not sure, but I don't think it is physically possible.

it isn't possible.

Thinking is thought, cogitation, meditation, mental action or activity,
while reasoning is the process by which one judgement is deduced from
another or others which are given. One can think abstractly or reason
abstractly, separately or simultaneously. One can also think or reason
without involving the abstract, as it were.

How's your narrative thinking? Better than your abstract thinking?

Last year during the hurricane, some Bay towns had four foot waves
breaking on their streets. They moved enough to remove houses from their
foundations.

no they didn't. they four feet of water on their streets, but they most
certainly did not have foot waves on their streets. To have four foot waves
they would need water about 40 feet deep, give or take a bit depending on how
steep the waves were.

They moved enough to remove houses from their
foundations.
