It's blowing like February or March out there . . .


April se paso de loco!


My friend Guti recalls a year the wind blowing May 22. Same year had rain in May.

Does not appear to have a threat of rain, we have clear and blue skies, just the strong winds.

Just picked up here in PB with gusts to 25MPH.

Gawwwdammm...I'd rather have an STD than constant wind. At least I could get rid of the STD.

Blowing like heck here in San Nicolas, too.

64 overnight - 74 was the high yesterday. We were in our polar fleeces all day.

Today so far up to 77 but very gritty.

What the hey!

Supposed to be some kind of "heat wave". Wind blew from opposite direction here today. Needed for the sand to change places anyway.

May & June are good allthough the yellowtail will be hit and miss.

July is excelllent.

August and September can be even better if you know how to read the conditions.
