NOAA isn't a sanctioned resource for wind in my book.

Winds don't look so bad

I'm sure JT's weather site has the winds at 5-7 knots.

His is the same as the link Woopty just posted.

And I've been skeptical in the past, but last Saturday it was right on. Breezy at times, although not SCA criteria.

Your right capt Dave, it wasnt sca wind, but it was a little breezier than 9-11 or whatever JT's forcast called for. And I know we were in the same area on sat. It actually made me feel pretty good to see y'all pull up to one of my favorite spots. I guess I've been fishing one of jt's holes since the first day I got my boat in 05. I guess I owe some back rent. And NOAA got it right on Sunday, man was it blowin

[Mister Mullet]

I WAS going to Panama City over the weekend. Their forecast calls for gale force gusts, 15-20 steady. I'm going to the baseball game instead.

Note to Mister Mullet : the game time for Saturday has been changed to noon from 6 pm.
