Saturday Forecast:
Interesting. I can almost cut and paste the forecast from today.
That low pressure over Lake Michigan is staying put. I see the possibility for a sunrise session Saturday morning on the Canadian side of Lake Erie at the eastern end, maybe 20-30mph (a little more potential than today). I’m gonna get up at 4:30am to check the forecast then. Even though it’s supposed to be hot on Saturday the air temp at sunrise is supposed to be around 70, so bubbling should not be an issue that early. In addition, it should be slightly cooler on Saturday than Friday. Models are showing decent S-SE wind most of the day, but the increasing heat often makes south wind goofy. Don’t rule out the rest of the day entirely, but just be prepared that it could be goofy as it heats up.
Lake Ontario is the same story as today, which worked out great at Olcott. The area between Olcott and Rochester could see ENE wind in the early/mid afternoon, maybe 20-25mph. This is no guarantee, and none of the models are showing it except ECMWF, but I’m gonna watch for it. I like the set-up. Could be a double session kind of day on 2 different lakes.
The BIG question here is early Sunday morning. Possibly a big NE blow just after sunrise on Lake O. Let’s take a look at that later.
