Lake Superior Gales

A powerful Noreaster packed a punch as it slammed into the rocky cliffs of Lake Superior's north shore with incredible waves and 65MPH winds.

October Noreaster

The Gales of November Come Early.  This storm is one of the most powerful in recent years.  I was at Silver Bay this morning and winds were 65MPH.  Incredible power.
I hope the cams are able to hold up, I may have some fixing to do come tomorrow.
