An incoming squall

Posted on October 2, 2020 by MeRaw

Standard

Friday 2nd October

Stayed indoors

For most of the day

Listening to the gales

Blowing away

The rain did cease

So donning hats and coats

Wild and woolly outdoors

Watching bobbing boats

Waves crashing over

The granite sea wall

A big swell building

An incoming squall

Thinking of you

Beloved Angel son

  Thank you very much indeed.
  We are lucky to live where we do, and to be able to watch the ever-changing ocean.

    Are the nearby buildings damaged by waves like that?

    Hi…. The buildings have probably been along the Wharf and Lambeth Walk for hundreds of years, in one form or another. And yes, once in a while a stone or small rock is picked up by a wave, and smashes a window, but the structures are pretty solid and will withstand a good old battering!!
    Quite a few have been flooded over the years, and sandbags are always kept close, just in case.
    Great views to be had…

  Thank you Derrick.
  The waves, (seen from the comfort of our home), were just as impressive today, but thankfully no rain.
  Hope you and yours are well.
