Default Shaking off the Rust

warming"...

Something is going on. It's the middle of February and a zillion boats have
been crossing over from the States all winter. Usually in the winter I see
nothing but whitecaps when flying overhead. Usually the seas are so rough
that even the small freighters can't make a crossing. This year I see a
bunch of boats on calm waters. The sea bottom hasn't been stirred up once.
The last time I saw this weather pattern was 1992, which brought Hurricane
Andrew.

It's better in the Bahamas!
The Bahamas run for nearly 700 nm with extensive shallow waters.
Following the shallows from island to island is like a Mid-westerner
following railroad tracks.

Got it...

Remember the stories about naval aviators following the luminous trail from the carrier at night?
