Another Blustery Day Ahead

It looks like Tuesday morning around high tide, we could see some splash and waves over some seawalls/bulkheads. Especially when the wind shifts to becoming more southwest (estimated to start around 8:00 am).

We have a small craft advisory in effect starting at 4:00 pm today. Wind Alert is showing gusts picking up around 7:00 pm tonight and pretty much continuing all of Tuesday. Tomorrow’s high tide is estimated to be 12.10 feet at 9:05 a.m.  The graph below from Wind Alert shows the direction of the wind becoming more southwest right around 9:00 a.m… yippee!


Check out all the future windy days in red along the bottom of the graph. Wind Alert is an ap you can download on your phone or you can visit their website by clicking on the links in our Swell Links section. We rely on it quite a bit for predicting how windy it’s going to be at home and for when we’re sailing.
