Craig's Where to Ride 8/30
Posted: Sat Aug 30, 2008 8:50 amLooks like a windy weekend. Today, Grants looks like 6.0/5.0 till 11 AM. DC looks like
7.5 from about 1 PM till 5 PM. SUlfur looks like 6.5 from Noon till dusk.
Tomorrow looks like stronger wind at SUlfur PM with a chance for 4.5 conditions late afternoon,
but Grants will fire up again AM for 5M sails. DC will also fire up early for 6.5 around
Noon. Mona also a possibility PM.
Kiters watch out for T-Heads and associated wild winds near them.
Monday looks like a pretty good North switch PM. DC will likely have 6.5 wind from
11 AM till about 3 PM, but develop that gusty holey routine you've come to know and love
on a passing front. UL should be pretty good on the North switch all over the lake from mid
afternoon till dusk, but the best Kiter winds will likely be the SOuth launches as usual (but
the North launches should be pretty good also), probably from about 3 PM till dusk in the
12M range. Windsurfers look for some 6M sailing from Saratoga Springs Park, or the Provo Boat Harbor. It will be much colder with rain also possible Monday, so dress appropriately
in and out of the water.
