the gradient forecast is best for telling you whether its windy , nukin , totally radioactive or totally dead!

generally , if there is a difference in as little as 0.10 in the pressure gradient between the event site and portland, then its ON. usually 12 M wind.

Also, you have to "click" forward on the gradient graph to the right time "zone"

I think it will soon be windy to all heck there ( just not on wednesday )

And, event site is still your best bet, if no wind at stevenson , then you are drifting down wind with no place to put in cept on the rocks. @ event site there's thousands of yards of sand so no problem if not enough wind for up wind ( altho' it is usually "on or off" )

at worst you get to road trip and meet some cool people there

p.s. thursday is lookin' nuclear
