Hurricane Ian
Most of today was spent indoors as Hurricane Ian made its way north from Florida. It made landfall around 2:00pm just south of Georgetown, SC which is about 60 miles north of Kiawah. Ian dumped 7" of rain in the Charleston area which caused localized flooding. The strong winds littered the ground with debris, mostly leaves and twigs, but larger limbs and branches also fell. The last of the rain ended around 3:30pm, and I decided that it would be a good time to put the nets back up at Captain Sams so we can be ready to band in the morning. I rallied the troops, who were probably not very happy with me because they were about to go birding for storm blown birds, and we put back up all 30 nets in only a couples hours. We didn't have enough daylight left to start Little Bear so we have to do that tomorrow. A big thanks to my crew for helping me put back up the nets!
