Just got back from a trip to my local surf spot. I don't think anyone will be surfing Bay Head anytime soon, certainly not me. I'm a little old for 15-foot waves - not that I was ever young enough.
I have to say these could be as big as any waves I've seen outside Hawaii, and I've seen a lot of places outside Hawaii. Of course in some of those places, such as Puerto Escondido, Mexico, the waves are actually clean and surfable. This is just a giant mess.
At the moment all of the sand has been stripped from the beaches and the rock sea wall is exposed. Waves are topping that wall already. and we've got hours to go till the storm peaks.
In that spirit, enjoy these photos. It's fun to watch such a natural phenomenon in action - though not so much fun to deal with it by trying to keep the house watertight.
I'll start with the highlight of the storm so far: The lobsters. The guys at Shore Lobster on Channel Drive in Point Pleasant Beach were having a pre-hurricane sale yesterday. I got four lobsters and three humongous crabcakes for just $22. Below is a picture of our dinner guests last night:
Every cloud has a silver lining; these guys were great; the crabcakes were even better.
These platforms seem to get consumed by the sea every year or so. This one's a goner. The ocean was topping the seawall there around noon, but just barely. Expect lots more later.
