The latest forecast for Chesapeake Bay:

Tonight
NE wind increasing to 25 to 30 kt with gusts up to 40 kt...then N 35 to
40 kt with gusts up to 50 kt after midnight. Waves 2 ft...building to 5
ft after midnight. Widespread heavy rain and scattered tstms in the
evening tapering to scattered showers overnight.


Gusts up to 50 mph? On the Bay...

Too bad it'll be dark...watching five footers or more on the Bay would
be a sight to see.






Really? 5 footers in Sandusky Bay off Lake Erie are not uncommon. Why are
you so excited about 5 footers in the Chesapeake? I would guess the Bay has
some pretty nasty seas at times...5 footers are certainly not nasty although
the winds forecasted certainly are.

Have you ever been out in anything other than 1-2 footers Harry?
