Re: Gloria

Is anyone else reminded of the 1985 Hurricane Gloria (struck NC, grazed Delmarva, struck Long Island and CT)? Gloria didn't come quite so close to FL. I actually rode Gloria out at sea in a nuclear submarine (our boat was based out of New London, CT). We could feel her waves 300 feet below the ocean surface. Lost power at our house for several days.



Wow, I did not think a sub would be affected at that depth!
