84°...

The water at 84° is about two degrees warmer than it should be at this time of year which is kinda nice when you are swimming in it, but not-so-nice when you realize that warm water is the stuff that fuels hurricanes ...

This warmer than normal (record actually) water situation has not escaped those  boffins/geeks that do the yearly hurricane predictions and all are predicting a dire season, which as of June 1 is now upon us. Some are saying a record year not unlike 2005...


Bummer...

Right now we are looking at various hurricane holes, making plans and looking for a couple of extra anchors (really BIG ones) as once again we find ourselves not out of the hurricane zone... What can I say, "I live on a boat" and as such, cannot be considered all that bright!

My hurricane plan for the next "H" season however, is to be in the south of France with  "So It Goes"  and sipping Pastis while enjoying an order of Niçoise Fried Olives...
