North of McLarty Museum Friday Early Afternoon. |
I looked at a good sample of Treasure Coast beaches this afternoon to see if anything was developing yet.
You probably noticed the change in weather as the front came through. It was pretty windy and colder.
Above you see what I saw north of McLarty, which is as far north as I went this afternoon. No cuts or obvious erosion there yet.
Ambersands Beach Early Friday Afternoon. |
The wind was blowing parallel to the beach while the waves were hitting straight on from the east.
The tide was low this morning when the surf started to increase, so the water didn't get very high on the beach.
I liked how the sand was blowing and at one point thought about trying to get a nice artistic picture of that, but didn't get around to it.
One fellow complained of the sand stinging.
Wabasso Beach Early Afternoon Friday. |
Nothing much going on at Wabasso yet either.

Turtle Trail Early Afternoon Friday. |
There were no cuts at Turtle Trail yet either. There was hardly any cloth from the erosion control bags showing.
Turtle Trail Early Afternoon Friday. |
When I first went by Seagrape Trail the access was closed. Later it was open, but it didn't look much different from Turtle Trail.
They had done some repairs to the stairs, evidently why the access was closed earlier.
John Brooks Beach Around 3 PM Friday. |
Upon walking onto John Brooks beach I noticed that the waves were hitting at a better angle. I then saw some cuts developing just south of the access.
Cuts At John Brooks Beach Around 3 PM Friday. |
I also looked at Frederick Douglass beach. It didn't look much different than the uncut areas of John Brooks.
The surf is supposed to be higher tomorrow.
