This week isn't good for me but I'll be asking the same question myself more than once over the next 3 weeks, so if you have some free time then, let me know. 514-4826

It was good at Nitinat from Saturday through Tuesday in the 5.0 to 6.0 range, with Tuesday being the best day.

Today the pressure gradient is northerly which is not good for Nitinat. Also, http://www.ocs.orst.edu/pub_ftp/weather ... on.SEW.txt says "... WEAKER ONSHORE FLOW...MAYBE EVEN LIGHT OFFSHORE FLOW ..." is in the offing for today and perhaps tomorrow, also not good for Nitinat and there is no fog bank this morning. Onshore flow returns on Saturday and with it the fog bank I hope.
I wish my TOW was longer!
