If it's blowing like hell at my house, it's blowing like hell at the beach.

SOWEGA must be in some kind of vortex then. It's blowing 10-15 knots now according to NOAA but there's not a leaf stirring in my cottonwoods.
But either way, good luck if you brave the winds tomorrow.

When did this become a grouper tournament? Certain folks too worried about off shore reports. I typically don't get more than 500 yds off shore. A little wind just makes it more of a challenge
See ya'll in the morning unless otherwise posted by tournament director.
