Is Saturday and/or Sunday still looking good?

I was going to go out today and was watching the meters and cams closely. After a couple disappointing sessions earlier in the week it initially looked like it was starting to drop off to be another so-so day. It picked up pretty nicely mid afternoon. Wish I had gone out. I hope there is still some fun to be had over the weekend.

Looks like it's coming back for the sunset session.

Attempted at my regular spot down here at Bayview. Just not quite enough board/sail to be going reliably(106/7.5)
The wind backed off around 630 and I bailed.
Weeds have become pretty miserable unfortunately. The fin I've got sheds them but doesn't point for beans.

Man if I was a windsurfer I'd jump all over this:

Annual Jericho parking pass, 1 board 2 sail quiver, fun in 8 knots.

And instead of swimming in when the wind drops like us kitefoilers you just turn in to a SUP.
