Thurs, 8/25??

Looks like there may be alittle bit of wind on Thurs. If there's enough to plane on the big stuff, I may give it a try. I'm about to go nuts.

Geno, You might already be nuts... Was it the ENE at 07 knts or the East at 04 knts that got you so juiced up? Oh wait, musta been the Hood River forecast you were looking at.

Actually, the Wunderground model is showing east wind peaking at just below 10 kt at 11 am. May not sound like a lot, but I have seen a lot of times when that kind of forecast results in a solid 10-15 (or 7.0 winds) for a couple of hours. More often than not its a very good morning. But you have to get there EARLY. Since the water will be warmer than the air, it may well exceed forecast. If it holds up, I will be heading out to Tidwell first thing thursday.

It would be a good time to make a quick trip to the GA coast. They are forecasting 15-20kts Thursday and Friday!
