Fleeing Ida

Here it is November 9 and all the weather people are abuzz with talk of Hurricane Ida. Though they must of course prepare people for the possibility of some treacherous weather, I sometimes think they like to over hype tropical storm events in order to justify their job. Ordinary weather is just that... ordinary.

Actually, I happen to think our weather here is Florida is quite extraordinary. Like the weather at the beach this morning. Though in no way associated with Ida, it was very blustery with winds out of the ESE. I loved this image of a solo pelican heading north with just a touch of the fiery sun on the edge of the horizon. Grey clouds portending the advancement of some tropical weather for the first time this hurricane season. Happy fall! Never a dull weather moment here along the East coast of Florida.
