Somewhat off topic, but does anyone know what the red line on the pressure differential charts on windonthewater represents?
Perhaps absolute pressure in mbar's above/below 1,000... but does anyone know for sure? |

Do any of you think Sauvie will happen tomorrow (Tuesday)? Doesn't it look like there will be an easterly in the Gorge tomorrow and won't that shut down Sauvie?
I really want to go, but hate my usual skunk at Sauvie. |

Looks pretty good in Kalama right now (5 pm). White caps on the water, though monkeyboy was right about the flood tide. Still looks doable, I'm going to check out the steelscape spot. |

The new Sauvies sensor is reading 11-18 avg 14. It will be interesting to hear how it was. |

SI looks like its going right now. Would like to hear how accurate that sensor is. I'm guessing it reads high. _________________ Still rockin gojos, *ssless chaps, and ankle weights! |

Yeah Steelscape spot was blowing 20-25 mph constant from 5-6:30ish when I went to check out the park. Park was doing 18-20 ish until 7pm.
Should be similar tomorrow  |
