The Approaching Pressure
Jenny sits on the porch sorting de-salted sea beet while the sky darkens. Kevin watches the barometer as the needle continues its descent toward 980 hPa.
The air pressure continues to drop, signaling the approaching storm is closer than the morning forecast suggested. The tide is receding rapidly, exposing the slick rocks of the tide pools near the cottage. Kevin and Jenny focus on securing the island and checking Jenny's injury before the weather turns.
Barometer's at 982. Dropping steady. Gale warning's out for forty-eight hours.
step onto the porch and lean against the rail, watching the horizon where the sea turns slate

I'll secure the generator lashings before the rain starts.
Stand up slowly, wincing as the ankle shifts weight, and walk toward the wood stove to check the limpets.

Leave the generator. I'll do it. You finish the beet.
push off the rail and walk down the porch steps toward the generator shed, pulling the ratchet strap from my belt

Watch the south pilings, the salt is eating through the wood.
Sit back down on the bench, pick up the bowl of sea beet, and begin de-stemming the leaves with my fingers.
