wind in nitinat april-May 2016

Post by fonkypigeon »

Hi Guys,

What do you think about the weather in Nitinat this week end ? ( april 30th - may 1st ).
Do you think it will blow?

I'll probably take the chance anyway.

Cheers,

Flo

Rain and cool in Port Alberni forecast - not likely to be anything at Nitinat but dampness.

I find the Weather Network forecast is usually pretty accurate for Port Alberni, although things can certainly change between now and the weekend.

Looks great now, forecast has changed completely from what I saw before. May consider going up if Gordon's is not on! :)

"BTW, what is this Gordon thing ?"

Past Premier of BC with a serious drinking/driving problem. But it was in Maui, therefore must be wind related somehow. :lol:
