Low tide in West Seattle, Sunday edition: More beach sights

WSB’er “d” got the sighting of the day – sharing video of a tide-exposed rock inscribed with 2/5/10 and some words about love and healing. Over by Me-Kwa-Mooks, Lillian spotted what we swear really IS an octopus this time (unlike the misidentified one from last night’s report):

And Gene shared a photo from Alki, showing how it looked when the tide bottomed out this afternoon:

If you have the opportunity to go tidewalking tomorrow (Monday) afternoon, around 2 pm the tide’ll be almost as low as today. After that, your next chance for a minus-two-foot-plus tide will be May 26-29 (here’s the chart). We’ll have -3 tides in mid-June and July, and those’ll be the lowest of the summer.

    That’s the only disadvantage of living in Eastern Washington. You cannot smell the tide.

    I love the low tides. The weekend was wonderful.

    Waiting for July….
