Strong northerly winds for the next two days... where you going?

I'm thinking Ashby Beach might be a good call

Am hoping for one of those rare northerly DTL days at OB. Looks like maybe 2-3pm tomorrow it could happen.

blowing 30 at TI right now and I'm stuck at work and rode my bike besides...

But eventhough these off season winds may be ripping high, they are NOT to be trusted. Stay close to shore / upstream.

Interested in reports on today -- same forecast for tomorrow. Anyone go to Coyote? Ashby? Point Isabel?

Ashby from 2:30 on: Started windy with a little shadow close to shore. We all rigged 5.0. Lasted about 1/2 hour then became up and down. Lots of slogging and some planing. Still it allows me to check off November in my log - on the last day of the month. Air was surprisingly warm. I hung my wetsuit under the Arbutus tree like I always do, after dark. This morning at 6:00 am it was bone-dry.
