“That’s 83 feet from peak to trough and ties a world record.”
Doesn’t the dangerousness of a wave depend on how far the peaks are from the valleys which would determine the slope of the waves and thus how much the waves would affect a ship?

Wow! Product of leftist insanity I see. Poor kids. The last sounds she will hear will be the screams of her three children yelling "Mommy! Mommy! Help, Mommy!"
Let her carry those memories with her into eternity.

‘shoes and bad weather don’t mix, but if they got us up in the air and started pulling that Top Gun crap we would probably up chunks too.

Folks inland are in for a big surprise
To: Bell Bouy II
Not me. Rain like no tomorrow.
I’m on high ground but it hasn’t been long since the torrential floods that destroyed many SC bridges. 2015 I think.
The Terror will be inland. You are correct sir.

Was on a 180’ buoy tender off the coast of Miami in a hurricane, on 23’ bridge wing looking up at the crest of the wave hitting us directly from our port side. I too had my life jacket on and napped on the bridge. We took a 53 degree roll, time stood still for a moment and I thank God that it rolled back.:)

Strength in numbers?! They’re not fending off wolves.
This is a parody - right?
