I think tomorrow should be pretty good!

Nice temp spread between Vancouver and Lillooet and should be clear skies for most of the day! Nice low tide will give us some good flat water! Alton? Care to chime in?

Pretty good day. Lots of people out. Mostly kiters I'd say. 9M wind, that gradually dropped to 12M. Lots of sun, some nice little waves, low tide for much of the early afternoon.

Today (Wed) was super steady SW 20+ 1pm-2:30pm then dropping to SW 15 afterwards. You missed a great day ... warm and sunny.

Tomorrow (Thu) I'm expecting strong SW 25+ becoming gusty into the afternoon.

Great day as Alton has already mentioned. Awesome conditions at the start (1-2:30pm) in the river, with perfect flat water for Vulcan attempts. Got 3 that were all perfect - bar the switch-stance catapult on the exit :D Getting. so. close.

After that the wind was more up and down and it was harder to find a good patch of flatwater in the river, so moved onto starboard Spin loop training - but that was cut short around 4:30-5pm by a lack of wind.

Definitely better than studying for tomorrow's exam. Fingers crossed for Sunday now.
