We're right now probably approaching the biggest part of the storm. Too windy to walk on the beach so I trucked in the Buxton Woods. Even in the shelter of the trees I was registering at least 5 miles an hour wind out of the North. I then wanted to check out first jetty, wind heavy out of the North minimum in the 20 mile an hour Zone if not 30 and above. It looks like all of the fencing set up in Avon and North Buxton, to trap sand on the beach, is now around the jetty. So much for Beach replenishment.

The weather station that is highlighted is from the woods. the one that is darker is the one from the beach.
