Been to Destin. Loved it, but my kid was stung by a jellyfish, and he had a little reaction. Something we don't have to worry about in Lake Michigan

Was in St Pete's Beach this June. I loved it so much that I am thinking of buying property there in a couple of years.

The beaches in the Med have better geographic scenery, but are usually more rocky, and the water isn't as warm.

The Pacific Coast is much better looking than the Atlantic.

Pastel white beaches, lined with subtropical flora, make for dramatic scenery. Amazing cultures are found all along North America's coastlines. A beach doesn't need huge mountains to be beautiful.

Only because of the topography.

Lol sounds like someone who considers a two hour flight to Florida a vacation. A large portion of great lake beaches are "pastel white beaches, lined with continental flora" BTW -_-

The whiteness is not to the degree found in the Alabama and Florida Panhandle coasts. Also, the vegetation on the Gulf Coast is subtropical/tropical, not continental like on the Great Lakes.

Another 1/4" over night.
Lots of overnight rains lately.. Perfect. Lots of 1/4" rains too.


Quick hitter but all my windows are wet so must of been very heavy.

Check out the line of rain heading to Philly then complete vanishes. lol




Looking at my stations data.. Looks like the heaviest came 3:10am to 3:30am then another quick burst at 4:15am.
