Jason hasn't sent out a 3 day race notice as of yet , so I would assume no race,

Free ride!

Jay and I talked last night. We are going to make a decision tonight if the forecast holds. Start doing your wind dance guys.

For us, the only thing it means for sure is 1.) the jet stream goes north this past winter and spring ( giving us our crappy wind season this year ) and 2.) Many more number of hurricanes this summer which are of higher intensity

Usually 4-5 years between cycles (last la nina was 2002) so we should be back to a regular ( windy ) season next year


happy b-day! you posting new pics Amber?

I saw the forecast for Tuesday and Wednesday(15-30 knots) but everything else I saw showed it only being around 12 knots. Was hoping it would improve but unfortunately it didnt.
Keep praying to the wind gods.

The new update:

TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT
EAST WINDS 10 TO 15 KNOTS.

WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT
SOUTHEAST WINDS 10 TO 15 KNOTS.
