The Calm Before The Storm

The Duxbury DPW blocking off the opening in the seawall is an omen signifying the arrival of Autumn.


Duxbury Beach, 9/4/16... I'm pretty sure that this is surf from Gaston, but Hermine is helping with the wind.


They'd better take Ol' Glory down soon, as it really has nowhere to go but Off-Pole when the wind increases.



This is pretty much Poseidon starting to steal your stairs. He got interrupted, but he plans to return.

Poseidon won't be getting these stairs. I was hoping to get a shot of somebody boarding up the windows, but Duxbury is fairly North of where the tropical storm is, and they can do a last-minute job if things get threatening.


Astronomically low tide,.. the surf is worked up, but not enough to reach the seawall. That's what night-stalker types on the beach call an "Ankle Breaker."

Tropical storms make for good kite weather. Sorry for the blurry pic, and that's Manomet in the background.
