Fascination with Weather
Technology and social media create an over load of weather coverage. Â And I’m a willing participant!
My flooding pictures from Tuesday were widely circulated on Twitter and various news sites. Â Even making it to The Daily Mail in London!
In order to balance out the hype, I always follow up with “after” pictures (see my Twitter account for today’s report).

How’s the Beach?
If you follow me on Twitter, you know I like to walk the beach.
In the off season, I vary my route so that I cover all 7 miles of our beach front…one hour at a time.  This allows me to stay current on the beach conditions in Avalon and Stone Harbor; especially important after a storm.
Update: beach access is temporarily restricted for a few blocks in the north end of Avalon due to erosion after recent storms. Â In Stone Harbor, there are sections with moderate beach erosion (especially noticeable at high tide). Â And yet other areas are wider than ever- recipients of that lost sand.
Both communities are committed to maintaining our beautiful beaches. Â Any winter storm damage will be addressed by spring- with safe beach access a priority.

Beach Birds
I’m on a mission with my beach walks…to spot the snowy owl.
Ironically, today the owl was trumped by an eagle!
From a distance, I saw a huge bird land on the beach near a few seagulls. Â Too big for an osprey or a hawk. Â As I approached, he took flight.
A local fisherman recently told me about a bald eagle nesting on Ocean Drive between Stone Harbor and North Wildwood. Â The fisherman was just leaving the beach this morning and saw the eagle, too.
The bird took off and landed twice near the water’s edge. Â The black dot in the middle of my picture REALLY is an eagle!
