Craig's Where to Freeze 10/27

Postby Craig Goudie » Tue Oct 27, 2009 7:46 am

Solid North wind out there with rain sleet and Snow and high temps barely brushing 40 degrees. That's a dangerous
mixture for Windsurfing or Kiting at all UL locations where it will be 5.0/10 from Noon till dusk with some 4.0/8 gusts.
Maybe those without a death wish should wait till Thursday for a slim, but ridable base at Skyline. If you are
crazy enough to try and ride liquid today, take your drysuit ,layer up large underneath, wear you hood, booties
and gloves, sail with some other crazy, and stay close to shore! My recommendation is don't go!

Tomorrow, identical conditions with stronger steadier winds and snow tapering off towards evening.

Thursday should be tolerable (with enough visibility) to get a few rides at Skyline before you cut through
the base, but it's awfully early in the season, so take a board or skis you can destroy.

I don't see a lot of warm air coming, the season may be over. We'll see.
