Keep eyes peeled for a seabreeze too.
Yesterday blew real good for about an hour and a half at the Undertow (from about 3:45 until 5:15) from the WNW then it dropped to about 11 knots.

Then again, maybe it'll blow NE? Who knows. Johnny on the spot type stuff.
I thought yesterday was going to be good from NE starting at 6pm, but the seabreeze (and lack of rain) over powered it.

NE works at the Skyway and Lassing mainly. I think EB is a tad sketchy on NE.

Several of us went to the SW and basically got skunked. Talk about localized wind!

Got skunked a couple times actually. Just got home from the skyway, I decided to wait it out and around 10:30 or so, it started blowing east. I was pretty lit and the wind never really seemed to go anything other than east. Ended up being just me, chris, and some sharks. Good times all and all.

I might be wrong but I think if you want to ride you better get some tonight, or get out of town. At least til the next storm blows by.
