Travelog post for: Tiger the Best

For the past few days Hurricane Gustov has been in the Gulf of Mexico and today it made landfall in Louisiana. This part of Florida is a few hours away from the area of landfall but we still are getting a good bit of rain, lots of wind and the water in the Gulf and in the Bay is very churned up. So when we woke up this morning to discover the power had gone off we took a little trip downtown to see the Bay.

Here is at a boat launch, the water is quite a bit higher than normal.

the dock is even underwater!


Usually at this little stop next to the 3 mile long bridge this ledge is 3 to 5 feet above the water level...not today!


This picture shows some of the winds we are getting.


Here is a big coastguard ship that was docked up downtown. I think it normally repairs buoys and the like.


Here is another picture of the waves crashing


These are just of the Bay area, we are sure that if we actually had gone out to see the Gulf the waves are a LOT bigger and more numerous.

*Due to the weather and the raining all the pictures had all three TVs I'm hosting in them and so each TV is going to have the same post for this. Hope no one minds, we were just trying not to get too wet for us or the camera!*
