October 2, 2005. Paamul Beach, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. "Stan" as a tropical storm was packing an atypical punch to the beaches of Mexico. The tidal pictures below shows a sea whereby waves would be 'piling up' one after another to provide very high tides accompanied by flooding. The storm along also provided enough water displacement to the shores of surrounding countries and states to increase the height of their rivers and canals. In New Orleans the levees began to flood again. These storms displace a lot of water in their turbulence to the shores of The Gulf of Mexico. There maybe some effect as from a recent solar eclipse but the focus of that planetary alignment was over Spain and not Mexico.
