If we could only add five knots to the forecast, maybe we’d have a prayer

You can just imagine the agony.  Sun sets on Sunday, THEN it starts to blow.  I'm hoping it comes early.

(Thus spake NOAA:

Sat E winds 5 to 10 kt. Seas 1 ft or less.

Sat Night Se winds 5 to 10 kt…becoming E after midnight. Seas 1 to 2 ft.
Sun E winds 5 to 10 kt…increasing to 10 to 15 kt in the afternoon. Seas 1 to 2 ft.
Sun Night  E winds 10 to 15 kt with gusts up to 20 kt. Seas 2 to 3 ft. )
