I just checked environment canada WX for W coast Van I N and there's a hurricane force wind warning this afternoon and tonight. Seas building to 9 meters after midnight. Suppose you were camped some where out there like Lawn pt or N Brooks. What sort of defensive position could be created against 65 kt winds?

blanket. I wonder if there is an "I Love Lucy" on.
