I thought there was shear once it hit land. Is this the brown water effect that caused it to strengthen in the shallow water?

I had to wear a backup pair of socks that weren't DT the other day and it was miserable.

Shingles are all about the same. Remember the phrase, "seis clavos", and repeat that to the crew.
Commerical electrician here and all our guys use Milwaukee cordless. DeWalt was the top but we transitioned to Milwaukee years back.

I agree with this:
