The forecasts that I am looking at are in disagreement as to what wind might happen? Best wind is this afternoon or this evening? Anyone care to comment?

Looks like it is nuking out there by looks of massive whitecaps in front of Lighthouse Park all way to the point at Spanish...
Jerichowind says 16 but I think that windmeter is sheltered and 50% of wind line.
Who know' s unless u took a boat out there?

TAF is calling for W 12 and EC is calling for 15-25 NW so a similar setup as yesterday.

Are you planning to hit Iona again? I can't make it until late afternoon / evening

Strong Chance, might knock off work early and hit it around 3:30 though.

17 knots at YVR right now!
