Rooster is over 40mph at the moment!!! Gusts over 50. Seems way too strong even on my six. What do you think - will it calm down later? msl Nak Since 19 May 2005 4304 Posts Camas Site Lackey CGKA Member Wed Oct 13, 10 7:43 am     Sometime this afternoon probably. The Troutdale aviation forecast shows a rapid drop off around 2:00.

That's crazy windy. I just looked at WindOnTheWater and it reads 23 at the moment. Didn't see any kiters out on the water but I'm real tempted to go. Probably should give my back a little more time before I abuse it like that though even with a 7m that's pretty strong isn't it? _________________ Captain kook; always wrong.

Add ten knots to anything the troutdale sensor says. That will get you the average wind speed. Add ANOTHER 10 knots for gusts (until about 12 when temps start to regulate). After 1 or 2 the gusts will decrease. So if its 7am and tdale is saying 23. You should expect actual winds to be in the range of 20-35. The ponds tend to be a little gustier than the beach itself. (or at least that has been my experience). Anyone up for dawn patrol? _________________ Bury me standing cause I won't lay down!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVvAw2VFR4Y&feature=PlayList&p=FB7233C37686AC79&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=34 wiseguy2 Since 22 Feb 2009 89 Posts   Wed Oct 13, 10 1:44 pm     If the wind is more reasonable thursday morning, I'd like to go out for dawn patrol. -msl G-dog Since 04 Jan 2007 61 Posts Portland   Wed Oct 13, 10 1:47 pm     Is that you up there Adam!?  OMG  netcam-4.jpg  Campbell Since 07 Sep 2008 409 Posts Camas, WA Obsessed Wed Oct 13, 10 3:05 pm     MIssed it today, I'm up for dawn patrol if anybody's going.
