Anybody get word on whether Worldwinds made in through the Hurican?
I can't can't get any info. from internet and the their web page just says: open today till 6:00 pm. I think that's some
kind of error. Even Sat. they claimed to be open. I think their web page was stuck on that date.

I'm guessing the buildings would likely disappear just from the water rising. I'm also guessing that the paved road down to the
windsurfing area of Worldwinds must of been eroded away from wave surge action.

Please,,I hope someone can give some accurate insight on this and prove that my "guesses" are Wrong!

Thanks Mat: That's great news! Not going open until Thursday? Or well, that's really pretty good.

South Padre Island, only experienced tropical storm stuff.

Windsurfing on The Rise (kiteboarding too!).
