Primarily a tropical weather alert blog, usually, but not always, about Melbourne Florida weather. Initially, an easy way to tell my friends when to board up their house.

The tide is high

A few pictures from around the neighborhood. The first is the pond that my street is supposed to drain into. The kids fish from that dock in drier times.


This is the dock at our pavilion near the front of the neighborhood.


And finally this is the pond at the pavilion.

Roads in the neighborhood are generally passable. I was able to carefully drive out and, once I made it out of the neighborhood, the roads were clear without standing water. The grocery store was opening, though some of the small businesses might decide to wait a little while before opening.

Fay has technically made it offshore at Daytona, so the third landfall in Fay's "Triple Lindy" trek should occur sometime today. Since Fay is currently stationary, it'll actually need to move to accomplish this. Movement is expected today, as the high pressure from the northeast builds south. Winds are at 60 MPH and the pressure is at 994 mb; neither of these measures have changed much overnight while Fay was just offshore.
