This season there has been a consistent and large differential between the Coyote and 3rd Ave readings. Today Coyote was reading 21 when 3rd was at 13. This has occurred quite often this season, but I don't remember such large differences in past seasons. The conventional wisdom is that Coyote is a better indication of the channel and the 3rd reading shows what's happening inside near the 3rd launch. I am quite suspicious of the large differential. Today, I went out on a 5.7 schlogging for the channel in search of the "Coyote wind" reading of 21. I got all the way across the bay to the far side of the San Mateo bridge and realized that there was still now wind -- despite the Coyote reading, and the flood was kicking in. To make a looonnnggg story short, I floated under the bridge and managed to get back to land and up the rocks after much effort. Jim/George -- let's check the calibration of the Coyote sensor.... mark.
