have any of you wind-ies done
any research on what the wind
will be like through the gorge?
NOAA is predicting some pretty nasty stuff
(stevenson, but HR was similar)
Saturday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 73.
West wind between 7 and 15 mph,
with gusts as high as 25 mph.
but ikite is more friendly.
maybe I should tune in to
Mr. Zafino?
