| I'd love to see it. Got a live report Sasquatch at Rooster and he says it's nukey beyond his smallest kite. I was headed to RR but with that report I just put my carkeys back in my pocket. Watching, waiting... |

| I might just pick up a 12-pack and start driving toward SI. Kelso just kicked in and there's a .05 gradient pdx-Salem. If those easterlies at RR would back off for a minute it should start to pull down through the lower Columbia. Wishful thinking? |

| Fremont Bridge 11 knots... usually not much chance of SI on a strong easterly day though. |

Just checked the sensors again and the airport looks ideal. Try to get there before the easterlies shut down (usually mid afternoon) if your really jonesing for a sesh.
These strong easterly days are usually the biggest fakeout for SI, everything looks right but you get there and its dead. All of the clouds sneezing out of the gorge as a result of the easterlies seem to hang out like a giant wind stopper just west of SI. |

How is that launch with the water so high?
The water is so high at RR it's right up to the stairs again... |
