    Just got an email from Lamar and he said they had about half the down lights pulled but not pulling any panels. It would probably bust them apart anyway so they figured just put new ones in if they are blown out. HAHA!

    Not good.

    The pier closed @ 2pm
    @ 4pm Buoy 42012 had wind gusts near 50 mph and seas over 11 feet.
    Waves of that size can be seen (offshore SE of the pier) on these videos taken by Ritchie Russel...

    Get everything tied down and stay safe under cover

    6pm in Mobile and things are already getting a little sporty outside, winds steady around 20 mph with higher gusts.
