What's up tomorrow a.m.? Where to ride? East Beach on a NE?
NOAA says
FRIDAY NORTHEAST WINDS AROUND 15 KNOTS BECOMING NORTH 5 TO 10 KNOTS LATE IN THE AFTERNOON. but I can't find a forcast model that shows more than 10-12 in the a.m. WTF? Where should I go to hunt a NE wind? East Beach? Never riden there. I need a fix in the morning man... where to go? |
Todd,
IMO Easterlies are best in the bay.....East Beach or Skyway North. I personally like East Beach better. Everyone has their preference. The thing I do is get up around six and check the wind. If its blowin in the upper teens I head down there. If its 15 or less I don't. However, it can get good around 9 or so and then shut off around 11 or so. Its pretty windy down there right now....so a pretty good bet that it will be rideable in the morning. I should be there in the am if the sensors send me that way. |
A bunch of us just got done riding Lassing. It was awesome.
Basically due East. Hopefully it holds up for the morning. This time of year though, the better bet (imo) is to get the wind while the sun is setting, and after, not dawn patrols. It sounds like you don't have a choice though, so just cross your fingers. Like Steve said, the odds of it going past 11 are low. It happens, just not often. Tom, that last board you made rocks. Nice job. It's your best one by far. |
Thats cool, glad you like it. Have 3 more here I need to work on... one is for Danimal.
thanks for the info... |
I will tell you more tomorrow. It's sweet though. :)
|
Sweet.. thanks guys.
Just doesn't look like much of a seabreeze tomorrow, I'll hope for an a.m. session. |
I wouldn't count that sea breeze out. Anything is possible this time of year.

Finally figured out these backroll things. :p |
Cool. Which beach did you go to?
|
Predictions for today?? same as the rest of the week.
|
Sunset Beach. Had the place to myself till 'bout 6. Then Brian360 showed up!
|
Cool.
As far as today. I have low hopes for the beaches. It seems like more of an "inland day" for areas like Cypress, Picnic and over by Raul. Guess we will see. Luckily the wind Gods don't care about my opinion and do whatever they want to do. |
I noticed not much of seabreeze today. (Saturday) Sorry weekend folks.
I was very hazy out today which IMO is not a good sign for a seabreeze.....anyone have thoughts about this as an indicator for lack of seabreeze. Put it this way....with all the haze I wasn't surprised it didn't blow like this week when it was very clear outside. Scott??? |
yawl need2 quit tryn2 figure this seabreeze stuff out.
it'll drive crazy bro. like scottie said. it's not the why's..it's the what's. like if the SW sensor goes slowly north than to zero...game zon or if the birds seem to be overly active and flying toward the beaches right b4 lunch...gametime. imo. peace |
Rode three rooker from 1:00 till 4:30 then rode to clearwater beach on the outside then back to honeymoon island to pack up the new toy at 6:00. Steve-O this thing is wild.
|
BS was good today... rode until sunset.
|
Today is questionable... but the rest of the week looks good!
