Default Sunday wind

Today was good at EB.
That makes 10 weekends in a row where we had at least one day with 3 hours or more of solid wind. Pretty awesome.

The SW sensor has been off lately, sometimes reading low. (Maybe it was zero for an hour out in the channel... either way, it wasn't at EB)
A couple guys I talked to on the phone didn't come out, due to the SW sensor readings.
Not sure which sensor around here would have helped today. Luckily, I am so close it's obvious when my trees start moving.

Anyway, for anyone trying to "get a feel of what it did", to use a sensor, or your trees as a sensor....at 12 it was blowing solid 13 from SSW, at 1pm it went to 15-18 S/SSW (definitely was not zero) and stayed there until about 3.
Then it started to taper of a tad, and worse (in terms of riding) switch to SW.

Nice to see the PR crew and all others. I was just hoping for 12 knots, it was a very pleasant surprise to get good wind today.

It got exceptionally gusty today close to shore as the wind shifted.
We saw lots of weird stuff. SW winds and EB don't mix so well.
