    Yes, it is called "over wash".
    The much larger than average waves (and temporary high water level) literally push the beach sand into the back bay (or Lagoon).
    Cumulatively, over time that is what is responsible for the long shallow points in the Lagoon.



    Hopefully, this storm won't be strong enough to do much of that!

    The center of circulation is on Long Range NO radar. I don't see much.

    It is going to be interesting to watch the front come in and steer this thing, You can see the front clearly on the So. Miss Valley radar mosaic.
    People are shocked to see sharks in the water around here.

    If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.
