Here's the coastal marine forecast for my area, except for wind direction it's pretty much what it has been for weeks.

Some people take advantage of it as I noticed a few weeks back as I was unloading my bike at the trail head one REALLY windy day (north wind, 30+). Saw a biker who had just arrived from somewhere way up in Alabama; said he did the ride a few times a year when the forecast was for strong north winds. That's fine I noted but how the hel* was he going to get back? He informed me that the wife was on the way.

BTW: To convert knots to MPH, multiply by 1.15.
