Can anyone give a guess on this weekend? I am lost without Temira. I checked wind alert yesterday and showed do able but yet the water looked flat from the webcams. I drive from Bend so a stretch to get shut down. Thanks for any input |

Maybe. Extended iKitesurf forecast looks not so good.
Temira returns tonight. Stay tuned. _________________ Pull the cork. |

You have to live here not to miss it. |

After 40 years as a pilot depending on forecasts, I decided Mother Nature is a fickle chickadee! Low pressures are the most difficult to forecast, they can turn on a dime and dump rain or snow which wasn't in the forecast. Today was a perfect case. All forecast said easterlies by midmorning. I usually use window forecasting. I look out and see whitecaps at 9am and know it will never happen. I foiled until 2 pm on westerlies today, but stayed close to shore for the imminent change to easterlies. At 5 pm still westerlies 11-15. Pack your bags for the Gorge westerlies on Saturday. Stevenson for the easterlies tomorrow! Get it! _________________ moondog |

If I lived in Bend my window wouldn’t work. I use ikite, Temira, and windfinder. _________________ moondog |
