Good morning to all ,

stunning pictures yesterday , I still remember the first time I saw a barracuda "live" , primitive genes started to growl immediately

Kathy , sunset was abolute perfect, thank you for capturing it.

Hang in there southerners , just watched NOAA, it is frightening.

The good news is , not that it is of any help to you , we have a sunny bright morning with a few sheepclouds , white and fluffy.

Coffee anyone?

sjosss

aahh..... sjoss..
thought you were never going to ask! coffee!!
Jummie.

Good morning all!

Thanks for the coffee Jos, but I'm having tea with honey. I have this nasty cold, which didn't made me sleep last night. Sore throat again, and due to the coughing my arm and shoulder are hurting too :-(
But anyway: good morning to all, hope you feel better than I do!

Good morning Karin, Sjos, Stan and all other,
Thanks for the coffee Sjos. Karin, you should try a "wet dog", maybe it helps to cure the sore throat. Hope you feel better today. You can also mix lemon juice and honey and sip. Very efficient :o)

Ilona, you just uploaded the capture I was staring at...what a beautiful image!

Lunch here is already over. back to work!

Good Morning All!!

Jos - thanks for the coffee and thank you for bragging about your weather.

Here in Georgia is started to rain, is dark but it will be later on that we will be hit w/lots of rain and wind. Maybe my boss will let us go early

Talked to Rafa last night, he said they got lots of rain and didn't have any power. I'll talk to him later on the day to see how is everything in Puerto Rico.

Karin, I hope you feel better

Nice sunsets last night - thanks/gracias!

Nice morning

Y'all have a wonderful day and be safe and of course remember to smile

Good morning everyone - Thanks for the coffee - well looks like my in-laws are really have to hunker down with Ivan the Terriable breathing down their neck... Gotta give a call and see if they are OK, in the mean time - thanks for the coffee...

Good morning all.

The rains from Ivan have finally started here (just northwest of Atlanta Ga). Forecast is for 2 inches or rain today and 50mph winds.

We are visiting our grandson at school (first grade) today for grandparents lunch.

Enjoy some Starbucks coffee.

The cam cudda was awesome yesterday.

Good afternoon all (well over here it's afternoon

Great cuda-capture yesterday! Saved it.
I hope all southerners are ok. Hang in there John!
Nice capture of the Trumpetfish tail 2!

Just a pretty sight.

Forgot to mention:

Two more weeks from today and I am in Bonaire.

AJ and my bottle of Ting.

A flurry of activity.

Hello everyone!!!
By the wreck has been a busy place this morning!

Kathy, Elvira and John hang in there!!

John what a great day you have planned - its nice when grandparents can be a big part of their grandkids lives!

Elvira - good news that Rafa is okay - I hope that his power returns soon - keep us posted.

Would love it if the cuda would visit us again

flurries

ooohh even better!

eeeeek lots of activity!

Hi Janet - what an accurate description of the 10:14 capture.
I almost posted that diver - but refreshed first!LOL!

what is on her/his mask???

Well - he's gone now - as a landlubber, I don't have a clue - but I see that, whatever the thing is on the mask, it's color coordinated with the thingie hanging off his arm...

looks like a crocheted wreath

Where is Dilly!?! A tang (and I spelled it right today)came to visit.

Look an invisible fish - except his fins are showing!LOL!

Good morning everybody!
Work is done for today!(early shift)

I want to post a photo from the webcam, but how do you do that?

greetings,

Wietse

my gosh - how many tangs are there?

Hello Mary,

and you captured Satchmo as well.

Is this the 'cuda?

Is there any indication down there when the reef cam takes a picture? I want to "one-up" the flowered bathing cap. I have a hilarious mask, if I can find it, but I may need to hold my breath to wear it. I can only get a 3 minute breath hold on a good day.

If the first thing that pops into your mind is "SEA MONSTER!", then that'll be me

Hi Ilona - not sure about the cuda?

Hi Wieste - you first need to save the capture on your computer and the post in your message as follows:
type - image
after the word image insert {name of pic} - make sure that it is surrounded by the {} brackets and the pic is a jpg file. Also be careful - no spaces after the word image. Good luck!

Stan - I have never seen any indication on when the cam takes the pics - I usually just wait for 4 minutes - maybe you minutes will be okay! Would love to see the mask! When are you going down there?

Wieste don't forget the backslash:
\image {1}

(no spaces!)

After you type that another screen will pop up and ask you to attach your file.

Kathy - thanks for remembering the \ - very important detail and the way to attach the file - boy I getting very slack these days - thanks for covering me on this one!

Fish face

I swear that critter knows we are all looking back!

Hi guy.

Wow, thought I was gone for sure that time. The power has gone off 3 times, this time for about 15 minutes and I just KNEW it wouldn't come back. phew

The wind is really starting to kick outside.

Someone posing for the cam. (little things, today, little things )

Hi folks,
is it the mask from the pic above on his head????

does anybody know this guy?

Ah, peaceful solitude


On the webcam page, scroll down; towards the bottom of the screen, you'll see a comment that the cams update every four minutes.

Have a nice day, all. I'm off to work. Hang in there, south.

there are the stripes...where are the stars?



weekend for me

Torsten

Are you sure that's a guy?

GEEZ the wind is getting crazy!

This is definitely a female. Pink!

You're right - can't tell if it's a guy or a gal! Sure looks like the mask though!! Someone is funnin' with us!!!

I am most definitely not a guy, and I cleaned the UW cam too. The whole thing did not show up clearly. I am going to go back to the bar cam and see if I can get my stuff to show up better.

I know Ron Gould and his wife are there now, but I couldn't tell if that was one of them...

AK. Dan,

If you become a paid member of the webcams, your refresh rate will be every two minutes.

Robert

Hi Lennea! lol Torsten, you're in trouble! lol

By the way, 9 days, 2 hours, and 23 minutes until touchdown in Bonaire!!!!!!!

(but who's counting?)

Mary,

I just spoke w/Rafa - connections are very bad we got disconnected several times. He still without power, at home and Fajardo (where he works) is flooded. He says he is bored to death - just reading!!

Here in Georgia we have had quite a bit of rain, lots of wind and thunder. But more is coming later on.

Linnea came back! Here's the mask:

Hi everyone.
After months, nay, YEARS of lurking, getting mentions from high-profile BT-ers (even attending Jake's Newyear barbecue), and ofcourse scaring BT with a plastic skull in front of the cams I am now posting my first message.
My name is Michiel, though the Wannadive crew have also bestowed the nickname Shrek on me. I have been diving Bonaire since 1979 and I am now in the process of moving to the island.

I came across a picture of main street Bonaire. I don't know if you all have seen it before or not, but it gives a better idea than the cams did of what the storm looked like.



(This is my first image post and may go awry. If that annoying 'YOUR IMAGE HERE' shows, you can, for now, see the original picture here)

LOL! What a great mask!

I want ya'll to see what's sitting on top of us right now...very scary here, now. Can't believe we still have power.

http://www.weather.com/maps/news/atlstorm9/ivanirsatellite_large.html

Kathy, hang on!

Stay safe!

Kathy, have been thinking about you and the rest of BT'ers in Alabama. Hopefully, it will pass soon.

Michiel, welcome and good luck with your process in moving to Bonaire.

Michiel, welcome, glad you've "come out" Great pic, and congratulations on moving to Bonaire...

when I first saw the "not-a-man" I knew it was Linnea, recognized the smile Linnea, great mask, thanks for the entertainment! Hope you're having a great relaxing time on the island;)

Kathy, hunker down! Yikes, Elvira, you and Rafa too!

Sunbathing...boy, I bet the folks on PR and in Ivan's path wish this were them!

OK, as the entire East coast, and Southern Gulf probably has no power at the moment, and things are so nice and quiet here on the Left coast...am I the only one here?? I'm home sick today and thought I'd pop in and chat...and I'm all alone...waaaaa!

Cynde, loved it - Ole!

LOL Elvira! Just got your email...how is the weather?

Fish splatter...

Torpedo alert...

Aunt Lyn - David & I were just reading this thread together, we knew it was you in the water & in the bar! Can't wait to get there & and have a drink (or two)!!

I am back Cynde :o)
Great pics today folks :o)
I have been thinking a lot to you, Southeners.
http://www.goes.noaa.gov/HURRLOOPS/huvsloop.html
I think I am going to bed now. Tomorrow is my last day of work, like you :o)
Good night. I see you back for breakfast or later in the night if JP starts snoring :o)
Bonne nuit.
