5/12 Craig's Practice Social Distancing and Stay at Home FC

Greetings, 1st the disclaimer. Everybody should just stay away from other people and the safest way to do that
is by just staying at home and doing zero non-essential travel just like the Governor says, maybe even in spite
of what the Governor says since the infection rate in Utah hasn't flattened out and is still on a very linear up slope.
Furthermore I don't know the status of launch sites, if you feel your sailing is essential due to mental health
issues, you may still get denied entry to your launch site so figure that in and do some research. If you choose
to risk your health and the health of others, get some fortitude and own your decision. As I say in my
general disclaimer, these forecasts are for entertainment purposes only.

Wind Tuesday will be surprisingly strong from the get go at DC. Figure on 6/12M SW conditions from 11 AM until
about 5PM and best around Noon, devolving to pretty gusty by 5 PM. Yuba should be 6/12M (maybe stronger in the AM)
conditions from dawn until dusk. UL with gusty SW 7/14M conditions from 1 until 5(Kiters be careful). Willard and
the northern lakes will have light NW winds that don't favor wind sports by early morning. If Rush had water it'd
be good NW wind there. Also. consider the fact that the water hasn't warmed up much yet anywhere.

Weds, Light but planable North wind in the 8/16M range should grace UL from Noon until 5, but figure
on low 60s air temps (10 degrees cooler than Tuesday) and a cloudy chance for some drizzle.

Thursday weather looks unsettled and not good for consistent wind anywhere.
