I usually don't start many threads, but I thought some of you may find this interesting:
About a week ago, I posted a couple of photos from our marina during Hurricane Gustav. Here is the link:

Fast forward a week. Now Ike is churning in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico, about 225 miles south of us after crossing Cuba. These photos were taken this morning. We already have a surge greater than the one for Gustav. At the NOAA reporting bouy off shore, the seas are 26 ft and winds are 25 kts........and the storm is still 200+ miles away and not even headed for us. You folks in Texas, get your boots on and get ready. This is not a storm to triffle with. Note the smoke coming from the green transformer.....wonder when those guys will get power back to their boats.
