Came and went a couple of times, but not nearly as gusty as yesterday.

There's a large blob of
moisture on the IR this AM and that will probably roll through between 10 and Noon,
killing most of the wind. After that, more rain showers on and off, but a few sun peeks
might see an occasional planing gust after 1 at DC in the 8.5/16M range.


Which is what I expected, too. Today was an example of why it doesn't pay to be too skunkaphobic; even Craig gets fooled (rarely). If you stay home, you're guaranteed to be skunked.

"...Mr. Southwick could you tell the jury how far - in feet - you live from Deer Creek reservoir?" :)))
