The Crystal Coast gets pounded

It is hard to believe that the weather can change so quickly, but it does.  It was just last week that I was wearing shorts when I was cutting some weeds.

Today as I reported over at my Coastal NC site, we have rain and high winds.  Thanksgiving is going to be pretty damp in Carteret County.

When the sun comes up tomorrow morning, I will try to get some pictures of the water.  Late this afternoon, I drove over the bridge to Emerald Isle and took this picture of a couple of human bits of flotsam in the surf.

I think they were trying to surf.  Based on the driving rain and wind, I think I could find a nicer spot to play.   It will be interesting to see  how high the water level rises in the White Oak River  by tomorrow.

I guess if you can love a place in this weather, then you must have picked the right spot.  It is good thing I don't mind getting wet.
