Default Damned weathercasters...

At the moment, there is no visible wind here, the air temp is almost 60,
and if I can find a package of squid, I'm going feeeshing, except some
forecasters are predicting 15 knot winds out of the north later with two
to three footers, and others are predicting only two footers out of the
north, and just a few miles north of here, at the Thomas Point light,
the wind is already blowing 13-15 knots, and one forecaster is saying
the winds will subside.

The easy part: if I go out, head north to northeast now and "surf" back
later. But since the damned forecasters are rarely right about anything,
the wind and waves could be a lot more significant than predicted
or...less.

I wish our guv'mint spent more on providing useful information and a
whole lot less on military misadventures.


Make sure you are off the water by 8:30 AM and you will miss the chop.
