post tropical cyclone OHO keeping weather forecasters on their toes... could go either way for us here, but im sure there will be at least a couple solid windows. Fri and Sat seem to have most promise of strong SE/S flow, but we might even see a short-lived NW on Sun... who knows?

Couple things to keep in mind:
  • Systems are moving fast and models are struggling to keep up
  • Tide at CB is low until about noon (tide favours the afternoon - water over the reef)
  • Ferries will be super busy this weekend (reservations are selling out and multi-sailing waits are likely)
  • Locust Friday morning holds some promise (strong wind and low tide could set up the 'outer reef') - it will be interesting to see what TJ's zoom shows tonight for Friday
