Whistling Past the Hatteras Graveyard by Peter Swanson
I don’t have a problem going “outside” when transiting the East Coast. But there is one section I won’t do outside—the Outer Banks. See Grounded Vessel Afloat Again, Ocracoke Island, NC. Our thanks to Peter Swanson for sharing his knowledge.
A week after Vivens Aqua went aground, two buddy-boating recreational fishing vessels—Bite Me and Reel Lucky—suffered the same fate on another Outer Banks beach. Their owners had become disoriented in fog.

These materials present an extensive framework to share the vision of an ocean-literate society and the range of knowledge required to be considered ocean literate.
Ocean Literacy and NGSS Alignment Resources are Now Available from NOAA Ocean Service Education!
NOAA Ocean Service Education is excited to announce the availability of the Ocean Literacy Guide, The Handbook for Increasing Ocean Literacy, the Ocean Literacy Scope and Sequence for Grades K–12, and the Alignment of Ocean Literacy to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). These materials present an extensive framework to share the vision of an ocean-literate society and the range of knowledge required to be considered ocean literate.
These materials were developed by the National Marine Educators Association (NMEA) with Support from NOAA, the North American Association for Environmental Education, the Lawrence Hall of Science, the College of Exploration, and innumerable scientists and educators.
You can access all of these resources as well as the Climate Literacy Essential Principles in English and in Spanish on the Ocean Service Education Literacy Resource Page. We strongly recommend you visit the NMEA Ocean Literacy Page for additional resources and more information about Ocean Literacy efforts.
The Ocean Literacy Essential Principles and Fundamental Concepts presents a vision of an ocean-literate society. Along with the Handbook for Increasing Ocean Literacy, Ocean Literacy Scope and Sequence, the Alignment of Ocean Literacy to the Next Generation Science Standards, it outlines a framework for achieving Ocean Literacy. These documents are practical, research-based resources to influence learning
and teaching about the ocean through our schools, museums, aquariums, science centers, parks, and other informal learning spaces. Understanding the ocean is essential to comprehending and protecting this planet on which we live.
The Handbook for Increasing Ocean Literacy is a resource for everyone to help teach, learn, and communicate about the ocean. While originally intended for classroom teachers and informal educators for the development of educational materials, programs, exhibits, and activities, these resources can be used by anyone, anywhere, who seeks to increase
ocean literacy.
The Ocean Literacy Scope and Sequence is an instructional tool that provides guidance to educators to help their students’ achieve a full understanding about the ocean in ever more complex ways across years of thoughtful, coherent science instruction. The content is provided as conceptual flow diagrams for each of the seven Ocean Literacy Essential Principles in four grade bands: K–2, 3–5, 6–8, and 9–12.
The Alignment of Ocean Literacy to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) details the correlations between the NGSS – specifically the Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCI) and Performance Expectations (PE), and the concepts included in the Ocean Literacy Guide and Ocean Literacy Scope & Sequence. This alignment focuses attention on places in the NGSS where Ocean Literacy is essential to understanding the DCI, but the connection may not be obvious.

David, you're right… just BS.
This is Mother Nature and she's been doing this since the beginning of time. Some years wet, some dry. That's life.
- Reply to Eddie
The oceans are rising faster than scientists predicted. If you live along the coast, any coast, now would be a good time to think about moving inland to higher ground.
- Reply to Perry
Yep it happens everything we have a nor’easter and a tropical storm and hurricanes. Expect we will have some rising tides this year as well.
- Reply to David
The tide rises and falls every day…knock off the bullshirt. Nothing that comes from the government can be believed with any certainty.
