What to Watch Today
- Bridge lifts & horn salutes: listen for the three-long, two-short Ambassador Salute when ships greet the bridge.
- Ship IDs: look for hull color, self-unloader booms, and crane count to tell Lakers from salties.
- Wind & waves: easterlies kick up waves at the canal — dramatic entries & spray.

Hi TEA
I live in Charlotte, North Carolina. My grandparents lived in Pottstown, Pennsylvania and we used to visit them every summer when I was growing up. I still have family in Harrisburg, PA and Gilbertsville, PA.
