Its hard to tell what is going on here. But, I was checking the surf early, due to a meeting I have today. But remembering this time last year, I was prone paddling out on the sound without a wetsuit. And this year, 27 degree windchill with the wind blowing so hard out of the NW that ist is pushing the tide way out on the ocean side (but pushing it way in on the sound side)

It happened again. Full internet outage (internet, cell, landline, 911).Thankful for info that came over RadioHatteras and ham radio. If you dont already listen to Radio Hatteras, you should. They bring important information when most needed.
Also, using Winlink (ham radio) allowed us to send emails out to others outside the affected area.
2nd time the fiber has been cut in the last month.

NOTE: you need to click on the image to see the whole thing.
On my hike this morning, I hugged the waterline around the point. It is amazing how much it has migrated North East. This shows my walk superimposed over google maps (from a few years ago). It is almost half the distance it was from Ramp 43.

While I didnt find any spy balloon wreckage on the beach this morning, I did find an awesome sunrise.
