DJ at kiteshop in bellingham says he's gonna be there at 7:30-8am for when the tide is lowest. High tide is around 130pm at 8.5 feet.
My guess is, wind strong in morning. Then pick up in afternoon.
I'll be there by 8.

Doesn't look too good at the moment. Heading to Bbay to join the gang.

I decided to head up to Cypress. If I still have the energy and it doesn't clock SW, I may head to BBay this afternoon.

Saw that too but weak forecast made me think it could drop at any time (hindsight...). 3rd likely would have worked too as S direction puts sensor in wind shadow. Few weeks ago could have been on 9M when sensor was about 13-14 g17-20 South.

Maybe Sunday afternoon as Brad R said on other string.
