[Rhodes22-list] Lotsa rain & wind

[elle]

Rummy, Good suggestion...however, the 100' Rural Protection Act (RPA) dictates that no trees w/diameter in excess of 6" w/in 100' of the Bay may be cut down...that would be the entire Northern Neck...anyhow, it's leaves blowing around that land in the cockpit...there are no trees near my boat.
Gives me a reason to go doen to the dock every day...;^)

Elle,
We had two days of rain and wind from the remnants of Ida. All total we  
received three inches of rain. Fortunately that means that Lake Hartwell is 
now  above what is considered full pool and the walkway to my dock is pa
rtially  submerged. About your leaf problem, cut down the damn trees.
 
Rummy

This  storm is making itself known down here on the lower Potomac....winds 
are  increasing...watching the water come into the creek as it should be 
going out  right now causes me some concern.....Mary Lou...is much water being 
pushed up  your way??
High tide here was @ 4 hrs ago..and the tide is now @ 12" higher  than it 
was then.....and the water is just rolling in ...whitecaps.....Luckily  my 
R22 is floating nicely....altho' I had to step up about 18" to board, when  
usually I have to step down about the same amount.
The biggest issue I'm  having  is the leaves in the scuppers. When the 
leaves are not all off  the trees , that cockpit is a leaf magnet. In the last 
intense rainstorm, the  floor scupper was blocked overnight (matter was down 
inside it...I had a devil  of a time clearing the blockage....) & I had @ 6" 
of water in the cockpit.  II have a partial cover but of course have no 
full cockpit cover...covering  the entire cockpit is a bit more complicated as 
I have the pedestal and wheel.  So I'll go down just before dark again 
tonite & clear what I can &  then just deal with it in the AM. I have no fear of 
my lovely boat doing  anything but floating even if the cockpit is bathing 
ready. Thank you  SS.
