i was just outside...no wind...but yesterday afternoon it was a cold north windAlan - 2-24-2013 at 06:21 AM
I am soooo tired of these cold winds. The YT have finally shown up in both quantity and quality but it just isn't worth taking the beating required
to go get them.woody with a view - 2-24-2013 at 06:44 AM
it was windy in San Diego yesterday, supposed to blow Santa Ana style for a couple of days HARD.acadist - 2-24-2013 at 06:45 AM
Speaking of wind, got woken up by a screetching on my phone at 5:55. National weather service blizzard alert here in CO. Think I'll pull some cabrilla
from the freezer and make tacos!woody with a view - 2-24-2013 at 06:46 AM
^^^atta boy!^^^msteve1014 - 2-24-2013 at 07:00 AM
Check the forecast for the pacific side. It will make you feel lucky to be in Chivato.Petey - 2-24-2013 at 10:08 AM
What sites are you guys using to get your forecasts? I don't recognize the graphic Russ posted/KaceyJ - 2-24-2013 at 10:14 AM

Wind better lay down for my whale watching next Saturday.Pompano - 2-24-2013 at 11:12 AM
WIND TRIVIA.
How windy is it?
Still my favorite..."It's so windy, my dog has to back up to bark."
Second favorite...old time ranching joke we tried as kids, but never got away with our fathers: "Hey, it's too windy to haul rocks!"
Third favorite ... from Baja Februarys long ago: "Don't let the wind spoil your vacation." So, we abandoned the beach...and discovered inland fun.
Actual fact:
During a wild April storm in 1934, a wind gust of 231 miles per hour (372 kilometers per hour) pushed across the summit of Mount
Washington. This wind speed still stands as the all-time surface wind speed observed by man record.
Pompano , thanks for the mt. washington link . That was good ! shari - 2-24-2013 at 03:05 PM
it was a sweet day today with only 10 knots of wind...and warming up too...yeah baby. I got some gardening in finally. The forecasts have been pretty
weird...some sites saying 20-25 knots and others 10-15 etc...i find buoy weather to be the most accurate windwise for here anyway.Russ - 2-24-2013 at 03:35 PM
I also jump around from site to site and they all seem to very a little to a lot at times. I've found for my area that bouy weather is a little better
during the summer and Iwindsurf or sailflow during the rest of the year. We've had a 31mph gust so far today and averaging around 16.tripledigitken - 2-24-2013 at 04:24 PM
That's strong enough to blow the orange peal right off that feeder!shari - 2-24-2013 at 05:24 PM
aha russ...that's why it was calm over here...blowin over there. There is a saying for this time of year in spanish...febrero loco...marzo otro poco!Hook - 2-24-2013 at 05:29 PM
Here's a nice, graphical website that I find as accurate as any, that gives forecasts out a week. Appears to run a computer cycle every three hours.
Has dynamic display that you can pause when you want. Or, just go step by step.
This link is centered on the Sea of Cortez from about BOLA/Kino down to about Punta Pulpito. Easy to expand to the areas you want. Note the legend tab
on the right margin of the screen.

That's cool Hook. Did you notice that it designer is IwindSurf?Hook - 2-24-2013 at 06:02 PM
No, I didnt notice. It's also the source for Sailflow, I see.Pompano - 2-24-2013 at 06:04 PM
I'll just keep looking at the stars the night before.
I'm also a fan of passenger pigeons, hollow hollerin', and smoke signals.Ateo - 2-24-2013 at 06:06 PM
I'm praying (OK I'm not really) to the wind God for next Saturday. DO NOT MESS WITH MY WHALE WATCHING. Oh well, worst case scenario is I can get
drunk in Guerrero Negro.woody with a view - 2-24-2013 at 06:13 PM
it's like everywhere on the west coast, get there EARLY!
