For those of you stuck in offices all day, looks like Sauvie has a chance this evening.

What makes you say this? I was starting to plan a trip out Tues/Wens/Thursday. Anybody want to trade on-site reports?

Is the Fremont bridge a good indicator of Sauvie speed on the water?

just took a virtual drive up Reeder ave. on Google maps, and you see a bunch of kites in the air. Six-pack 'o suds to whomever first identifies their own kite, and the exact date and time. Musta been years ago! If ur the guy walkin in the street I'll buy you a case!, you mullet wearin degenerate!

Tempted to make the drive, better see if the a/c is blowin cold in the van.

It will blow today and tomorrow....!

Just look at pressure and temps from Astoria through Portland.
The high tide will even start turning after 3'ish...
So that's a big plus....

Get Out there....!!!

Frenchman's bar and Kalama should all be going too Wink

Heck... Kalama is going off now. The whole corridor is probably firing away.

Indeed. It's blowing as opposed to constantly sucking.

Newbs and kiters afraid of actual wind should descend now

It was solid today for the ~12m kites. There was even a 30 minute stretch where I would have rather put up a 9m! Tomorrow looks good too, the suppose sensor is currently forecasting 14, which is a bit stronger than today's forecast.
