Where ot Ride 9/14

Postby Craig Goudie » Fri Sep 14, 2007 8:18 am

Sulfur still looks like the best bet PM for 6.5 conditions. Grantsville
AM also looks planable in the same range. DC should be 7.5 starting
around 1 PM. There's a chance for huge Kites and huge sails at UL
North launches around Noon from the South, but you should figure on some big lulls.

Tomorrow and Sunday look to be similar with the Jet SW over
Northern Utah the entire time.

Red Flag warning = 7.0M?

Craig,
I thought I'd check your forcast after I looked at the The National Weather Service site. They're calling for red flag and you're calling for white flag. What's up? The forcast for this afternoon is 25-40. I think you may have bent your meter up in the gorge! In any case, it looks like fun for all. :D

Apologies to anyone who may have been unduly excited by my inquiry to Craig. It initially looked great with a big Red Flag warning on the NOA site. However, they seem to be backing off their forcast and it looks light in Provo.

Marty, doug, and hank got lucky at Willard. I learned the hardway, wind waits for no one. How about a report?

For me Willard is even more difficult to predict than Pineview, plus,
that lake nearly took my life once, it's very unpredictable. I'd say
if it blew there yesterday, there's a very good chance it'll blow there
today.
