PSA: The World is not Disneyland, Part Four Thousand Forty-Two

OK, who here does not know better than to go swimming in the ocean when there's been a Big Storm within the last couple days? Show of hands, here, people.

Right. The ocean is not your friend. The weather is not your friend. I speak here as one who is very much attracted to both the ocean and to dangerous weather. I understand the allure. But for cryin' out loud, don't dice with either for your life. Unless you're very, very lucky, you will lose.

But, as my excuse -- I have never lived on a costal state.
Actually I can probably count the number of times I have been in the ocean on one hand.
