Default I hope no one was at Picnic Island when this hit....

Great day today!
Totally 20 kts right at the beach by our house. Lori on her 8m and small surfboard!!!

Then the skies turned dark and we headed home..........

I saw this from Old Port Tampa / picnic Island and thought, hope nobody was out there when the Hurricane winds strike ...

I was at picnic when that hit, LASt kite just came down in time, and then they all started tumbling down the beach, with owners running after, it was quite the spectacle.
