Excellent call Dr. Leal. Not only was the national weather service watching
it but so were we . the "traffic cam" was on a building right next to it and
followed it along. funny , we could see it but the drivers in cars on the
causeway couldn't, luckily it swerved at the last second and missed
everything.
 
(SHELL RELATED PART)
If a water spout ran over a reef it could pick up several shells and dump
them in your yard . Now if it dumped Gigas do you call marine patrol, if you
did what would you tell them ?
