Wind in Alameda seemed to die off this morning but back now. May head over for a couple runs if the wind keeps up.

Got out on my 9m (a little underpowered) at TP from 12:00-1:00.

Fantastic 'lunch'.

some of you are afraid to get wet i see...... FT&^

honestly i made it all the way out to HMB and wasn't about to turn around because of a few water drops. It was actually phenomenal and flat while it was raining. It cleared up for a bit and then it became super gusty. That's about the time when i came in. It was just me and a few sea otter fans.

A-town dawn patrol Thursday again? Forecast is showing wind from the southeast. Does that work? (OAK is in the way?)

Seems like this storm system might last until Sunday.
