4/5 Craig's Where to Ride

Postby Craig Goudie » Thu Apr 05, 2012 8:46 am

An occluded and stalled front always makes for a difficult forecast (for me).
Best bet today is probably North winds all day long at Rush in the 6.5/12M
range probably steadiest in the AM. UL will also have gusty WNW winds in
the AM in the 7.5/15M range. PM UL winds may actually shift South for really
gusty 6.5/12M conditions. Willard has SW wind this AM in the 6.5/12M range,
not sure how long that will last, if the front wiggles slightly, that'll be the end
of the Willard wind. I see DC is also up this AM in the 7.5/15M range with
gusty SW winds. If you're already there, maybe a ride or 2, but I wouldn't
count on that lasting. Cloudy mid 50s air temps, at least sun breaks out this afternoon. Don't forget your thick blubber.

Friday steadier North planable winds at Rush and UL in the PM in the 6.5/12M
range, maybe getting a brief burst of 5.5/10 mid afternoon, but with Air temps
barely making it to 45 degrees, it could be dangerous.

Saturday looks windless.
