10/3 Craig's Where to Ride
Posted: Wed Oct 03, 2012 8:02 amGood wind today. Best bet is probably UL launches, with SSB and Lincoln leading the way with 5/10M conditions
by about Noon, and maybe a dip to 4.5/9 around 3, but good until dusk. MM19 with similar conditions. Sulfur
Creek looks strong today in the 4.5 sail range from Noon until 5 with low 60s air temps, and probably the
last time this year you'll see the air temp that high at Sulfur. DC looks to be extremely gusty holey from
about 11 AM Until 3 PM, and any kite or sail will probably be right or wrong for seconds at a time. I think
there's also some potential for Jordanelle's J-Bay to work in the 6/12M range around 3PM.
Tomorrow, Sulfur (maybe hitting 52 degrees) and DC look like 6/12M conditions PM, with UL
getting a residual 14M North day, at SSB and Lincoln late afternoon.
Friday, yet another front passes through, and brings more planable North winds to UL launches,
but be prepared for some very cool air temps in the low 50s.
