Looks like it's forecasted to go west, so that's most likely a no-go on Rooster.
Stevenson gradient looks tight, but the human forecast still says 18-22.

| Switch back to west today so no go @ RR. Jones is at 18 already and looks good all day, it looks like the gorge is gonna pick up in the afternoon as well.

Jones might be it... But if the gorge goes later today that might be good

| Days like this can end up being the best 12m day of the year at the Sandbar.

| Remember to look at the gust factor at Jones. The sensor is blocked and the gust is usually pretty close to wind on the water. Plus it's stronger on the WA side... It does usually pick up as well starting around 1:00 - 3:00.
