Surfing Hurricane Earl

30 People Surfing at Point Judith

The day before Hurricane Earl is supposed to hit Rhode Island, I went to Point Judith Lighthouse in Narragansett. I counted 80 people surfing and more were continuously joining in. Here I could count 30 surfers, only one of which is actually surfing. The windy conditions were making it very sloppy, and with so many people in the water they were constantly dodging each other. Thankfully while I was there nobody collided!

What a beautiful shot! I love seeing different views of that gorgeous ocean. We’re about an hour away from Earl making landfall here in Nova Scotia, and the ocean is churning and crashing…anyway thanks for the photo and must dash before the power goes. Hope you weathered the storm all right, and I look forward to your post-Earl photos!
