We now have TS Cindy.
Lots of heavy surf and a ton of rain, and we don't need either.Carl

I hope you guys and girls get out of it with no flooding issues and minimal wind. I'm coming down early next week and hoping the rain effects inland doesn't create any lower salinity issues from river runoff.

Something we may relate better to a little closer to 'home',
the water levels from Perdido Pass as the storm formed and dissipated...

Looks like we can expect a 'small' groundswell (may reach 4 feet) from the transit of TS "Franklin" beginning in about 24 hours, peaking Wednesday near noon (high tide) and lasting into Thursday afternoon/evening...

looks like Franklin going ashore today on Yucatan peninsula. Expected to drop to tropical storm then restrengthen over water and reach near hurricane status and go back ashore south of Tampico Mexico..

'Harvey'
indirectly sent a short-lived 2'-3' groundswell into our area this am.
Indications are it will likely regenerate in the SW GoM and move NW to the Texas coast.
The winds and seas could increase here later in the week (along with more rain)...
