Milton leaves waves in his wake

The waves are huge. Hurricane Milton is out there still. The waves at its core could be twice the size of those that show up at Ormond-by-the-Sea. Tourists gawk. Surfers ponder and wonder what tomorrow may bring. They know the waves will gobble them up, the currents sweep them along the beach. They can wait, maybe tomorrow. Maybe Saturday the wind will shift offshore and sculpt the waves. It will be worth the wait, days this observer guesses. He sits. Waits, with camera.

glad to hear you are doing ok. My brother and sister-in-law had evacuated from their Bradenton home to their son's home in Melbourne and did ok. They just drove back to Bradenton and amazingly their house is in good shape. Good news.

Bob: Chris and I evacuated to the northern part of the county away from the water. A friend's house out in the woods. We drove there in the driving rain and came home avoiding flooded roadways. Those waves were amazing.
