Chicago High WInds 9/29 Water Jumping Sea Wall

On September 29, 2011 even in Chicago, the Windy City,  the winds were really high. And so were the waves on Lake Michigan. It was an overcast day so the photos tend to be foggy looking.

The Lake is about 10 feet below the ground we were standing on at the golf course in Lincoln Park.

This wave is only about 6 feet above us but others were alot higher.  Giving the 10 feet down those waves were 16' plus. 

 

It was fascinating watching them.  They started on the north end and rolled all the way down the wall to the south.
