Deep-water seaweed drifts ashore to Pinellas beaches
Welcome to Florida and its beaches, with white sand and warm breezes . . . and clumps of seaweed rotting in the sun.
With the Republican National Convention 10 days out, this is not exactly the first impression we wanted to make. But in recent weeks, beachgoers, fishermen and experts have reported unusually large clusters of seaweed dumped in patches between St. Pete Beach and at least as far north as Clearwater. It's squishy and slimy and doesn't smell good.

Sounds like the Occupy crowd is starting to show up.

Where are the Jerry Fallwell types? Is this not God sending a message?

If it lingers long enough it can hit Charlotte for the Democrat convention too.

At most it will be a CAT 1 storm, which ain't nothin' but a thang. The convention will cause the weather people and the media extra jacked up, though.

Mother nature's version of flushing the toilet.
You never see that kind of stuff happen in Montana.

You need to get to a Montana lake in the summer.
Better yet, just go to egriz and look at all the photos Chris posts. That fucker's got the life of Riley.

Andrew tracked more from the north and didn't have to fuck around with Cuba, Haiti, and the Dominican which tend to tear up storms that are on a track similar to Issac's

Key West will be rocking and rolling more than usual. That would be fun to ride out a depression/storm at Hog's Breath saloon.

Yep. By the time this one gets done with Cuba it'll be nothing more than a good surfing day on the left coast of FLA.

Well by southern standards, it isn't summer unless it's 95+ with 90%+ humidity...so I guess Montana doesn't have summer at all.
