We are at +32 with at least 80mph breezes. Broke two cables on my solar tracker and put me airborne when I went out to fix it. All the years out here and it finally blew our chimmeny cap off and it is somewhere between here and Pilot Point. Barometer is still falling so don't know how long the high winds will last.

Dang Ubob, thats some crazy wind. we had -40 this am and now we are snowing like crazy and 3 above!!! if not foggy, too cold or snowing...hasn't been a very productive year. Next prolly Rain and wind...

Don't say the "R" word!

We had big wind on Friday, gusts at Eldred Rock 81 knots. Low and behold, yesterday was flat calm with sunshine!

Just read an article in the local rag that says winds where clocked Friday at the ski resort here at 133.49 mph!

AV:
Looks like my old Halibut hole at Eldred Rock had about the same winds as us. We had heavy rain that took about 1/2 the snow from the last blizzard and we are back to substained 55-60 with gust to at least 75mph. Getting old but at least the winds aren't as bad as yesterday.

Huppy,
This is why I don't jig for cod in the winter!!!

AKPP,

Nice toes on that one YJ!!

Wow, eaglecerest is a ski resort!? That's debateable, but spose it would be a resort for someone from the arctic.

Was that a closed jaw trap?

Nice toes on that one Jeff! As soon as I get some pictures from the pard, we have one like that too!

Oh and BTW, I pulled my fox line today. I have a surprise and my last fox of the year.
