New here, wanted to say HI.

#1 Postby SCUBAdude » Fri May 28, 2004 10:57 pm

Hi all, I've been reading this forum for a while and have been enjoying a wealth of information from you guys so I decided to see if I could give something back. I live and work in Gulf Shores AL. and I can give a birds eye view to whatever approaches the Alabama Gulf Coast. I Work right on the beach and see some pretty amazing stuff when a storm comes in. We installed a weather station at work so I can give accurate wind speeds and all the other relative information you might find useful.
Anyway, just wanted to say hi.

Yes FWB, I was in Isidore and I can honestly say that was the meanest tropical storm I have ever experienced. It was worse than most cat 1 hurricanes and I've been through quite a few.
And thanks for the welcome.

Welcome Scubadude. Sounds like you'll have some valuable info if/when the tropics visit the N. GOM. :D
