Stir Crazy!!!!

Today is our 4th consecutive day of heavy rain and 30+mph wind. Yesterday we were flooded in most of the day and had the cars up on higher ground. Going nuts stuck in the house.

Supposed to play a golf tournament tomorrow. The rain is supposed to stop but the wind is supposed to be sustained at 15 to 20+ with a high temp of 54. The course will probably be a total mess. I will be playing on a waterfront wide open links style course.

Re: Stir Crazy!!!!

That's not rain water. I live on an island.......Ocean City, NJ.....Im about a par 5 from the Atlantic Ocean and a long par 3 from the bay. That water is from the wind causing the tide to be about 4 feet above normal.

You're a brave soul. I know those raw winter on shore winds cut right through the body. Good luck if the tournament isn't rained out.

Re: Stir Crazy!!!!

Re: Stir Crazy!!!!

The good news on the golf tournament is its being held on a course that normally has rediculously fast greens. This will be the most receptive and slowest I will have ever seen the greens on this course.

Re: Stir Crazy!!!!

39* this morning in Georgia, and it's cold.. add in the 10-20 mph wind they call for, and I'm not sure I want to play.

I'm fine with cold.. I have clothes to wear, but I don't want to be cursing the wind... Debating if I want to throw the clubs in the truck and leave around lunch to go play alone.

Re: Stir Crazy!!!!

An updated picture. My neighbor who is what we call a shoobie (inlander) parked his truck on the street overnight. What was he thinking?????!!!!!!! I took this picture an hour ago.....since then the water has come up another 8 inches. Right now I would say he's got 6" of water inside his truck. I suppose he will be calling his insurance company tomorrow. Keep in mind this is SALT WATER!!!!

Re: Stir Crazy!!!!

Looks like what we went through about 3 weeks ago.. Only.. we're 4 hours from the coast, and this was just rivers/lakes/creeks busting the banks. 18" of rain in 3 days.

Doesn't look like fun to play in fisher... I believe I'll stay home myself.

Re: Stir Crazy!!!!

Keep in mind this is salt water, not fresh water. When salt water gets in the brakes and other parts of the car ITS TOAST.
