«It's Those Tides Again»

Similar to when we had the 19 foot tide on December 14th, 2008, yesterday we had an 18 foot tide. Only difference is we had a storm surge on top of it yesterday. 60 mph gusts and such. Click an image to view full.

The water level is a little higher than it was with the 19 foot tide on a calm day.

Yeah, I think if that car owner were a little more mindful of the tides they wouldn't have left it there. Salt water wreaks havoc on break pads.

Good thing the sea through here stays relatively calm...

That building is new. Before it was built there, I've seen that lot flood with tidewater during a storm. I don't think they put in that much extra fill, either.

    I like the water, but that house seems too close.

    @ Looney: It's actually more than a house. There's retail space on the first floor, and condos on the upper floors.
