Wow! Glad I'm not out in that, but I bet we get some aftermath over here soon. --Gary Hyde 2005 M17 sailboat #637 'Hydeaway 2' We can't change the wind, but we can trim our sails. On Dec 2, 2007, at 9:03 PM, Roberta Dvorscak wrote:
Hey, since we're comparing weather notes, it is currently blowing 45 kts with gusts over 50 with wave heights of 32' at 9 second intervals 16 miles off the Oregon coast. It's raining too. Coastal headlands are seeing sustained winds of 80+ mph with gusts up to 109!! The Oregon coast can be somewhat inhospitable to small boat sailors this time of year! These conditions have been consistent all day and will continue until tomorrow evening. It's warm, though, 50°. I'm glad my little boat is snugly under cover in my driveway awaiting spring.
