Umm, yeah. increasing sunshine? I checked NOAA, there is a huge bank of clouds and rain heading in from the coast...WTF? I am so teetering on the edge of canceling Ikite. If you can't predict it, then get a sensor out there at least....

I got skunked out there on Friday night; conflicting forcast again. If there would have been 6 knts. of wind, I could have done it because the current was ripping so hard. The water level was super high. How was the coast PDXMB?
