Not Beach Drive, I know, but my husband just called me to me to say the road is blocked 
off with police and flares everywhere in front of "Gee/Huling" at Alaska and Fauntleroy. I’ll contact WSB to see if they know what’s going on.

Barking Dog Report: High Winds and Waves
December 2, 2007 by Leave a Comment
West Seattle Blog just published a wind advisory from the National Weather Service from 10 pm tonight until 4 pm Monday.
The Barking Dog is published (since that’s what my husband affectionately calls me) when I’m concerned about the weather, waves…etc.
Here are the current reports that I’m reviewing causing me to howl:
Marine Forecast for Puget Sound:
…GALE WARNING NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON…
TONIGHT…S WIND 25 TO 35 KT…RISING TO 35 TO 45 KT LATE THIS EVENING. WIND WAVES 4 TO 6 FT…BUILDING TO 6 TO 8 FT. RAIN.
MON…SW WIND 35 TO 45 KT…EASING TO 30 TO 40 KT IN THE AFTERNOON. WIND WAVES 6 TO 8 FT. RAIN.
MON NIGHT…SW WIND 20 TO 30 KT. WIND WAVES 3 TO 5 FT. SHOWERS LIKELY.
…WIND ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 10 PM THIS EVENING TO 4 PM PST MONDAY…
…FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM LATE TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON…
TONIGHT…RAIN…WINDY. LOWS IN THE UPPER 30S TO MID 40S. SOUTH WIND 15 TO 25 MPH BECOMING SOUTHWEST AND INCREASING TO 25 TO 35 MPH AFTER MIDNIGHT.
MONDAY…RAIN…WINDY. HIGHS IN THE 50S. SOUTH WIND 25 TO 35 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT…SHOWERS LIKELY. WINDY. LOWS IN THE 40S. SOUTHWEST WIND 25 TO 35 MPH DECREASING TO 15 TO 25 MPH AFTER MIDNIGHT.
Factor in a high tide of 11.4 at 12:15 tomorrow afternoon (we’re past high tide today) and you’ll see why I’m yippy.
Heavy wet snow, high winds in the forecast…why worry?

This practically in the same location where trees came crashing down in the big wind storm last year on Beach Drive.
It’s Snowing!

On the first Day of December: Beach Drive Blog Christmas Photos
December 1, 2007 by Leave a Comment
This photo was not taken this year; however, it was kindly contributed by neighbor Ron Sterling of the Argosy Christmas Ships by Lowman Beach. A little teaser for when the ships will actually be cruising by on the evening of Saturday, December 8th.
Thanks for sharing, Ron!
I’m Celebrating a Blogo-versary
November 30, 2007 by 2 Comments
It’s not Beach Drive Blog’s 1st year…yet. Do check out the count down that I added in the upper right corner of the blog. My very first blog, which was nationally recognized this year, turned one this week. One year in the blogo-sphere is a long time for a blog. Many sadly fizzle out…I just can’t stop!
Anyhow…to celebrate I treated myself (and my blogs) to a Flip Video Camera. It’s amazing! Very small and lightweight. This camera runs on two AA batteries and plugs directly into my computer and to simply download the video…for less than $150. There’s a couple of models to choose from. It’s just fun and I can’t wait to share more videos with you on my blogs!
Happy Birthday, Mortgage Porter and thanks to everyone for reading Beach Drive Blog. Shameless plug…I know…but it’s my birthday!
