Getting Scary out there

I live a block from the bay, high tide in the ocean is now, and experience has taught me that usually high tide in the back bay is about an hour and a half after that of the ocean's. This is what I'm looking at now, never seen it higher than this, been here for more than two years

We'll trade you...

They just closed I-95 about 45 miles east of here due to fires.

This was this morning:

Flames near homes on Smith Lane in in Malabar, Fla. light up the sky

Monday morning as wildfires in Central Florida have forced hundreds of residents to evacuate their homes.
