June 1 brought the beginning of hurricane season. We usually don't see any real tropical disturbances until mid July and then we don't see any coming this way until September (The Great Storm and Ike hit the same weekend 108 years apart).
But this year we had Alex come ashore on June 30. Now, it came ashore hundreds of miles from here, but we had high tide (over the bulkhead), rain and wind for a week because of it. Now we have another one coming on its heels. This is our tide at 7 am this morning.
This is my favorite weather site. Click on computer models for a look at where they think the storm will go. We are the bay shaped like a K closest to the Louisiana/Texas line.
Hopefully we will dodge the big ones again this year.
