     Shredders For Your Information:
                                                                WED PM
     
     The most recent storm brought mostly rain and not a lot of consistent
     wind to Pillar Point Harbor. The wind direction was quite variable
     out of the NW to N making it useless for boardsailing here.
     
     Tuesday night the wind increased to a steady 25 - 30 knots, with a few
     gust recorded in the 45+ range. Biggest puff around 8:30 PM Tuesday
     night was clocked at 58 knots at the HMB Airport.
     
     Wednesday dawned with wind variable N in the teens.
     
     With the next low intensifying this afternoon and evening offshore, we
     should see acceptable boardsailing conditions in the Harbor much of
     the day THURSDAY with Southerly winds expected to 20-25+ knots.
     However it could be much more making for a really good Pillar Point
     sailing day.
     
     Happy Shredding,
     
     JWC in Pillar Point Harbor.
