As far as an Event update, I think plenty of us know it is a stepped, or many-layered thing coming in waves (plural of the one big one), but not destructive, 300 foot waves, but more waves high enough to knock our socks off, but not so big that we can't integrate them and be boosted by them. If you sit on a beach quietly, and just watch the power of waves at work, you can be lulled into a kind of hypnotic sleep, or you can remain alert and see each small event wave gather power, reach its tipping point, curl in upon itself, and crash the remaining few feet to the sloping sea surface, letting its presence be known by its thundering crash, and sending its sprinklets of wave power shimmering out into its immediate environment in thousands of crystalline drops.
If we can stay awake in the moment, we will see this again and again.
