I guess that's heavy air for So Cal. Up here it's a light day.

Here's some info I got from a friend that was racing last night:

"LAX recorded 18knots at 7pm with gusts in the low-20's and it was
somewhat
windier out from shore. I think the waves were the bigger problem. It was
the roughest I've seen it for any of the wed night races in the last 3
years. There were at least 2 dismastings, one boat capsized, one sunk,
people overboard from several boats, and lots of sail damage. Dock
scuttlebutt was that the boat with the fatality was a Moore 24 and the
boat
that sunk was a MacGregor 26. We got soaked but enjoyed the ride, and had
some really great surfs even without the spinnaker."
