Man walking with metal detector finds cache of gold jewelry dating back to 500 AD: ‘Find of the century.

A Norwegian out walking on doctors’ advice unearthed rare 6th-century gold jewelry using a newly bought metal detector, a discovery archaeologists said on Thursday was Norway’s “gold find of the century”.

“At first I thought it was chocolate coins or Captain Sabertooth coins,” said 51-year-old Erlend Bore, referring to a fictional Norwegian pirate...

The cache comprised nine Norwegian gold medallions and gold pearls that once formed an opulent necklace, as well as three gold rings.

Archaeologists say the find is unique because of the design on the medallions — a type of horse from Norse mythology.....

While scouring a craggy Norwegian island with a metal detector, a man stumbled upon buried treasure.

After initially keeping quiet about his finding, he has now shared his discovery with the world.

Håvard Børvik, a metal detector enthusiast, came upon the hidden loot on Engeløya, a small rocky island north of the Arctic Circle, he said in a Sept. 5 Facebook post.

He found a stash of metallic armbands intricately engraved with rows of triangles buried beneath layers of soil and roots...

Hurricane Lee charged through warm Atlantic waters on Friday and threatened to unleash heavy swells across the northeast Caribbean. It became the season’s first Category 5 storm before weakening slightly.

Currently a Category 4 hurricane, it is not expected to make landfall, but meteorologists warned it would generate dangerous waves of up to 15 feet (5 meters) across the northern coast of Puerto Rico and other nearby islands. While Lee is on a path that would take it a couple hundred miles (kilometers) northeast of the Caribbean, tropical storm conditions are not forecast for the region...

You can see the cone above.  It shows the north turn that is expected, and which I was shown on Windy.com.

I ran the ECMWF model on Windy.com this morning and it looked like we'll have very small waves for a few days, but increasing slowly through the week, reaching a peak of seven feet on Saturday then falling off again quickly.  The angles don't look very promisingl.

SurfGuru shows about the same thing.

Margot is not a factor for the Treasure Coast as it will turn north way out in the Atlantic.

At least some bigger surf is expected.  Too bad the direction isn't better.

Good hunting,
