Hard to say, rooster generally goes early but then drops off early. However, it sometimes can blow through the entire night. Best to just keep an eye on it and see what it is doing as five oclock gets nearer.

I sailed from 10:30-12:30 on 9m. Was often overpowered, but made for good boosts! Doesn't look like today will last late, but tomorrow promises much stronger wind which should go later. Plenty of beach, no standing water, but the vegetated areas are still muddy.

two dozen kiters out today at 3 when I got off the water.
nice sunny 9-10m conditions with pretty steady winds. I noticed the john day dam is reading 70 degrees now. we are now in the season when the temps will slowly drop and the crowds will start thinning
ok see you out there tomorrow. should be a good one with plenty of beach for rigging.
