Maybe dawn patrol Sunday morning. Sketchy forecast at the moment.

Even this afternoon's forecast looks sketchy :cry:

Fingers crossed. Sunday AM SW + high tide is a bad combo

Long Beach Tofino . Big messy waves 15 knots SE pouring rain 4 Celsius

I wonder if I’m at the right place place for SE wind if it picks up and waves become manageable to get out

For sure not Cox bay. It’s windy at the campground but not by the water

Hmmm ... will it last? Is 3rd Ave the call or is the Ferry Terminal the safer bet? .... Hmmm
