SAT WIND

I need the Chris Voith forecast for wind. all the info I look at says only 10-20 ENE. Chris always has the best forecast for big wind. Make my day. Trey

Huh? I defer to Randy the "Diety".

The January thaw is the traditional time for the Iceberg (formerly aka the IceMan... until Donna VH reamed me a new one for being a sexist pig) event. Sunday meets the criteria: >50º and 15+ (and diminishing chance of rain). I'm not seein' Big Sunday though.

If I go, maybe I'll take the Start. Anything to keep from falling in.

I'm thinking the AM is the best chance. Was planning on going to Tidwell, but could be talked into Vann's Tavern if there were others going there.

What happens in a black hole stays in a black hole.

If the current moves fast enough you guys may be able to sail even if there is no wind.
Just draw two chalk lines on the water and see how fast the dead fish move between them; that should tell you if the current is strong enough to make the needed apparent wind to be planning.

45F - That's today's water temp. as reported by the Corps. Webguy has the right idea - take a big board and don't fall in. If the wind blows from the NW and it ain't snowin, I'll head to Van Pugh on Sunday.

I don't actually plan on getting in the water because I know better but if you guys go to Vanns Tavern then when you get done we could have a little hot tub party since I am right down the street.

Hot tub maxes out at 4 people.

Lets see how things pan out today and tomorrow.
