Wet Weather and an Angry Gulf

We are at the southern side of a huge storm heading across the US and ready to dump on Georgia AGAIN!! Even a few miles north of us there is snow and black ice while we have only some light rain and some waves on the Gulf - enough so that there are a couple of surfers out there this morning.
I know that it doesn't seem like much to folks who are used to a lot bigger surf but for us southerners - it's huge. Consider I'm on the 11th floor and the waves are about 200 yards away - well figure.

The bike ride the other day didn't go as planned - ended up getting a couple flats and walking over a mile to get picked up - never did find what caused the problem but replaced the tire (it was on the last leg) as I have no intention of making that walk dragging the bike along again. And if I believe that, I'm really getting senile. It's a factor of Murphy's law that if you are going to get a flat it will be the absolute furtherest distance from the parking lot that's possible.
Here is a map of the biking trail we get to use - I was about half way across that green trail when things broke

  
Finally today, here is a picture of our condo building I took last night - there are 220 units and this is the street side view
Here is the condo building and we are up 11 floors about in the middle
