Sea Sick

Today was a rather blustery day! I know, I sound like I'm narrating A. A. Milne's, WINNIE THE POOH. But that's not it at all. If you could imagine yourself out on a local lake, with gusts of 35 - 40 mph, white caps lapping up over the edge of your dinghy, not only would you be in peril, but probably launching up any groceries consumed beforehand! It was so windy today ..... (can I get a, 'How windy was it'?), it was so windy, when I lifted the toilet seat today, the water in the bowl was moving back and forth. So the question that crosses my mind is, "If my commode is indoors, and the gale force winds are outdoors, and my house is withstanding said winds, why is the water in the bowl white capping"? Do I have any friends out there who are plumbers/part time meteorologists? How about sailors/ meteorologists? Plumbers/ sailors? There has to be a logical explanation. I feel a government grant is in my near future to study this phenomenon.
