These pics all came from Mitchell Powell of Milton, DE. Click on the thumb for a full size picture.

 

To get everybody stoked for the hurricane season Mitchell sent these pics from hurricane Gloria in '85. These pics were taken a couple hours after the eye passed by only 25 miles offshore. The winds had shifted and were blowing west at about 70 MPH when these pix were taken. The waves are about double overhead.

 

Taken on the Indian River Inlet bridge looking north.

 

 

Taken from old coast guard station.
