When I was there last I heard it can be good on SW. (if Whidbey is too sketchy)

There are others with WAY more experience than me at Locust, but I will share what I have experienced with SW.

1) SW forecast, bust it blew S the whole time I was there.

2) Switch to SW on my first run out. Stayed SW for about a half hour (great jumping to port, but REALLY tight wave spacing), tanked, then rebounded S.

3) Switched SW and tanked (resulting a VERY long slog in).

To my eye TJ's zoom look a touch unsettled.

I will be watching Locust (Plan B) as it only an hour away. My two cents.
