Decades ago, it was a fully functioning lighthouse. Today, it is part tourist attraction, part National Weather Service facility. As the quartet of heroes race through the city toward the lighthouse, the weather goes from the calm before the storm to the storm's rage itself not more than two dozen miles up State Route 4.The driving rain, flashes of lightning, and howling winds make driving along the way difficult, but manageable for the heroes. SR-4 merges onto Interstate 525, cutting a beeline between Hanover and North Bay. Soon the city lights have been left behind.About an hour later, the heroes arrive at the facility. The lighthouse sits atop a promontory. The Pacific Ocean roars against the rocks. Surrounded by a tall chain link fence topped with outward leaning barbed wire, the lighthouse, the few surrounding buildings, and the almost empty parking lot are dimly lit by lamp posts. The gate is closed. A security box with a numerical key pad stands nearby.No one can be seen outside, which isn't surprising given the violent thunderstorm pounding the area.</blockquote>
