Seiche Conditions on November 11, 2003

Winds had been blowing at 30-60mph all night from the west and gusting even higher, so when I got up I took a look at the shore and decided I had to take pictures. These were all taken between 7:30 and 8:30 AM. The water was 4-5 feet below the normal low water mark, but by 10:30 AM the water had already come back up about 2 feet. The early Miller Ferry didn't run. Waves last night were supposedly 13-17 feet. Islanders have seen the water this low before, but it usually takes 2-3 days. This time, it took about 12 hours.

Did the government really think they could get rid of the beach at the airport?	More of the beach near the airport, taken near the Bretz Cabins	My dogs enjoyed the new beach	Low Water at the Lonz Winery	This shows that the water is 4-5 feet below the usual water line
Roesch's marina	Roesch's boat ramp and the Middle Bass Island Yacht Club	The roof blew off this new barn/garage on Anchor Lane	The southern edge of Burgundy Bay	The new road to Sugar Island
