When we left the beach on Friday night, it was blowing maybe 15 out of the east. The storm was forcast to go up the gulf, (the opposite side of the state) and the wind was forcast to swap around to the south, then west, 20 knots. There was some talk that maybe only 15 knots and rain. Obviously wrong. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
