Went by the beach in Deerfield to checkout the convergence of squalls from land and sea last night. There was a guy doing standup in this dramatic setting. Even better he wasn't struck by lightening. I didn't have a regular camera just an an Evo cellphone,







Here's our boy stroking just outside the sandbar, Hillsboro Light down the coast in the distance.




That squall to seaward became real interesting and threatening as it moved in to shore. It seemed to change every few seconds.



A calm stormy sea?



I tried to capture it with limited success but at one point there were these dark ragged vertical tendrils of cloud hanging down below the base. This thing morphed through many changes of mood short of grabbing and swallowing vessels at sea.




Making north ideally to secure before the fireworks move in close.




Still going off in the east.








Last look to the southeast, weather moving in. Some rain would be good.
