There is a large quantity of some lighter than water substance floating in a slick immediately west of High island.

Near as I can tell, the substance originalls flowed seaward, as if a rupture took place during passage of the backside of the storm, coated the upstream side of any obstacles protruding from the water and is now forming slicks as it washes of the obstacles.

No idea what it is or where it came from, but it looks like oil or gasoline to me.

You’ve got darn good eyes to notice an oil slick (or whatever) here!
