Hey Guys,
Almost all of Juan de Fuca Strait is blowing 35-50 knots right now. Windy in the western and central strait since midnight. Swell should be insane at JWSP.
It just switched West at 0500 at Ault Field and jumped from 6 knots to 27 Gusting 38 in the last hour. Much more wind to come just west of JWSP. Race Rocks is gusting to 51 right now.
The forecast has solid Gales now through mid afternoon with nothing backing off until late afternoon. The winds are continuing to build as we speak. Looks like a logo to mast high 3.2-3.7 day of wave sailing for the local guys.
I'll report any text messages I get from the Washington locals I met on a few trips that all called in sick today. Looks crazy windy up North too. Perfect Point Roberts day in store it seems. Fun meters should be pegged today
Cheers,
Chris
