Great score! Useless sets up nicely for some front side rides off the sandbars. The two stations directly downwind, 1.5 miles, showed winds today averaging 38-44 knots with gusts of 47-53 knots. Like you said, very steady winds. I figured you get sunshine in the lee of the Olympics. That's pretty common for Whidbey on SE days. Tomorrow will be tamer with SSW 25-35 all day. Checkout Ebey first before heading to Useless. The beach is smooth polished rocks instead of sand. There's a gravel parking lot right on the beach and it gets nice waves on tomorrow's low tide. The wind is usually 5-10 knots more then Useless too! Ten minutes from Oak Harbour
