VeroBeachFiveStar.com Tsunami in Vero Beach? Snow Storm in Vero Beach? 9/25/2011 What is this? It is to early for an April fools prank. Did we all join the Boy Scouts? "Always being prepared". What is it with all these signs poping up along the Treasure Coast barrier island? To the best of my knowledge there has "never" been a Tsunami within in a thousand miles of here. Yes, there was a rogue wave in Daytona Beach on July 3, 1992 with no warning, measuring 18 feet high, 250 feet wide, 27 miles long. This wave smashed hundreds of vehicles parked on the beach and injured 75 people. By the way, this was not a Tsunami. It is generally believed the Rouge Wave was caused by an underwater landside or even more interesting a possible meterorite anywhere from a meter to 10 feet across crashing into the ocean nearby. Yes, I forgot to mention the "possible" Tsunami 35 million years ago at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay. Tsunami Evacuation Route signs! Why? First it seems a bit alarmist to put all these signs up, not to to mention the cost of the signs. 28 to be exact thus far. It is my understanding we just shelled out at least $10,000.00 for the erection, planning, labor and installation of these signs.We are standing by here at Vero Beach FiveStar for anyone who can give us a really good reason for this unusual expense at this time. Please, Please give us a call. Call Diane at 772.770.9000. As the rumor mill continues to stir here in Vero Beach there has been a mysterious ship anchored several mile SE of Vero Beach off the shore. Also ,the rumor mill continues that the off shore monitoring (DART- Deep-Ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis) buoys has been out of commission for over a year and no one knows if or when it will ever be repaired. Again, this information is through the rumor mill. Rhett Palmer the Mayor or the Airwaves Rhett Palmer aka the "Mayor of the Airwaves" or as I call him the "Morning Mayor of Radio".

We place Avanzare one notch below Amalfi Grille , two notches above Pizzoodles and very similar to Pomodoro on the Beach. Perhaps the food and service is a bit better than Pomodoro but Pomodoro’s ambiance is more pleasing. Once again we remind you, we frequent all the Italian restaurants listed here. You won’t get a bad meal at any of them. We think they are all exceptional in their own way. BTW, don’t be fooled by the front entrance of Avanzare. It gets much better once you are inside. Be aware the noise level can become annoying when they seat a table of 12 young women celebrating something.
