I've tried to post this twice now...and both blown to the cosmos wind. So...
the weather is going to get windy, really windy. I tried to tell about my weekend away, blah blah blah...but it's late, I'm tired and ...stay tuned!
The official version, plan accordingly: Oh wait!!! Somehow I caught a bit of what I tried to write before!!!
So, while I was a bit concerned this morning leaving Jost in a sailboat with no engine that the wind would not be
enough to move us (and yet it was, good juju oh yes!) and flying out of St. Thomas was a bit of an awareness that the wind
was picking up, and our landing, with an excellent pilot, was rock and rolly should have been a clue,
along with a friend on Jost heading to Bequia tomorrow delighted with the forecast of high HIGH winds, I still hadn't clued in
until I was a Dinghy Dock catching up on the weekend events and the wind was high and I was getting cold (which regular readers
and friends know doesn't take much for Ms. Cold Weather Weenie and Proud of It) to know, something is going on.
Plan your laundry and traveling accordingly! Ferry don't run in 15 foot seas, chirrun.
NOW, the official version!
Continue to expect the approaching frontal boundary...currently
passing through the southern Bahamas...to reach the north coast of
Puerto Rico and the vi around 12z tomorrow. While an increase in
winds and shower activity is expected across the local islands
tomorrow with the passage of this boundary...the much anticipated
event remains the large long period swell that is being generated
behind this front by the associated low pressure system over the
northwestern Atlantic. Will need to monitor this developing
situation closely as this swell approaches buoys north of the
local islands overnight...but for now...a coastal Flood Watch has
been issued for the north coast of all the local islands excluding
Saint Croix...beginning tomorrow morning. This watch will likely have
to be upgraded to a coastal Flood Warning along with high surf
advisories for all the north and northeastern exposed coasts.
What I was about this weekend (there was more in the other blown efforts but...this is what it is)
