Checked in this evening and saw a nice number of friends had stopped by recently. This is what you are looking for: good chance of breeze Wed-Fri. Our dear Gov wants us outside and exercising (but safely!). I plan to essential exercise with appropriate social distancing. There are more cases reported in Hall so don't assume it's all good because you aren't inside the perimeter.

Vertical mixing theory (punches through the dome effect). Photos about 40 minutes apart, showing cumies and wind Good

G'ville is out performing the forecast for today.

I am hoping that Tueday afternoon will also.
If the wind is blowing around 3 tomorrow I hope to go.

SW so maybe OF unless others want to go to VP

Water temp is 66 +

Today, Tuesday, has a good forecast. If the wind picks up, I plan to sail. Don't know which launch yet.

Also watching. NWS sez wind picks up 3 pm-ish. I'm planning for that at the sailing club. I think the gate requires using the keypad (0152).
Will update/confirm by 1p.

Big batch of rain coming from the west. If anyone goes, keep an eye on the radar. Guesstimating in the Atlanta area in 4-5 hours.

I most likely will be foiling again around ~3:30 or so. Yesterday started a light but ended great!

Well, today ended up a crap out. Steady 5-7 with no puffs to get going. Blush
