I tried SI and Airport, and got NO lovin. Hit sauvies @ noon and the wind droped from almost doable to nothing in about an 1/2 hour - left @2:30 and it was dead. Airport had the wind, but it may have been a little too northerly - at least when I was there (2:30 - 3:15). Large bands of 'dead' spots came through, and it was very up and down. I stood with both arms in the air and yelled 'DO ME' - I think that pissed the wind 'goddess' off - it just got even worse.

That'd be awesome. It is one of the top places that I'd want to have one (mainly because I hate getting skunked after the drive in). Especially since we still don't have the greatest realtime sensor numbers. Just need one like Storm Warning has at the HR Sandbar. How do those live feeds work? Do we just need power from out there, or does it actually cost money to run the feed also?

Nevermind... pretty sure it costs a decent penny! http://www.usrelay.com/

You're welcome Mark.

It's really outdated/sub par by todays standard (just like the guy operating it). Kodak 4800 point and click.

Wish I had a better picture of you. Nice Torch!

Thanks! Its a 18 which so far has been perfect for sauvies. Great depower for the gusts and plenty of low end for the lulles. If you want a ride let me know.
