Irene's waves in Palm Beach, FL

Uploaded by: LakeWorthFinn — Thursday August 25, 2011 — Palm Beach, FL (Current Weather Conditions)

August 25th, 4.15pm. cat4 Irene's eye is about 160 miles SE off the coast. Big waves cover our 30 yard wide beach and this is NOTHING compared what people up North will get! PS. The life guard tower is gone. The waves that covered the whole beach and the 50mph gusts took it with them. Life guard left his post just after I took the pic and is fine.

Outstanding pictures. Thanks for sharing but don't put yourself in harm's way just to get a picture.

Thanks Skye, we know now that this was nothing compared to what was to come.
Tishy, thanks for a sound warning, but I was safe standing on a hill zooming my cell to the beach, which can't be seen because the waves covered it completely. I don't know what kind of beach erosion occurred, haven't had time to go see, but will take a shot from the same place to compare, if the lifeguard stand is still there.

About LakeWorthFinn
LakeWorthFinn After travelling around the world for over 20 years as a professional tour leader, I ended up writing novels. Hubby and I moved from Finland to SEFL (I'm Finnish, he's American) and I experienced my first Cat1 hurricane, Katrina. I found Wunderground just in time for Wilma. Now maps, radars and all kinds of satellite loops fill my 'Links' folder, and I'm a living proof "you CAN teach an old dog new tricks". LOL
