Damn Pete, that's looking like an epic Pepin forecast (as long as the rain doesn't squash the wind)! Unfortunately hafta stay close to home tomorrow so if it's straight east I'll be at Bellaire late afternoon or if there is any S in it Ramsey.

Good to go at Ramsey. Still some ice around Manitou Island.

Last night Ramsey was 50-50 with it being open in front of the launch. There was still a lot of ice upwind of the "islands". I'll check it out tonight. Full sun today should help!

Will do a check on WBL tonight.... Near shore shallows by the Marina were open yesterday. Would be nice if Ramsey opens up tomorrow for a sesh.

They have a variety of paste waxes that do not require an iron/scraping. Buff in and ride.

Howz the wind? Gonna try and hit it this afternoon

Nice! Been too long since I've been out there. Next Summer!

Your vid's gone viral Alex - made World of Windsurfing on FB

Yes! Did a drive by and the lake is fully open. Will be there around 2 pm today for a short session.

Gotta be straight W for Bylls to work. Gonna head to the Wack this afternoon since it's trending NW.

Trying to get my ducks in a row and hoping the forecast happens so I can sample some corduroy:

Breezy, with a light southwest wind becoming west 20 to 25 mph in the morning. Winds could gust as high as 30 mph.

Corduroy. So bummed I missed out but life happens, eh? Pete - you got pics? Pepin must have been off the hook. I settled for some 4.7 on WBL while Mike W rode is 10M kite. Way better than a poke in the eye! Guess I'll have to hold out hope for another big Westerly over Thanksgiving weekend!!!!

Post where you guys end up tomorrow - I might be able to make my way South. Or shoot me a text - (651) three three eight -4627

Who's going today? Forecast upgraded but cold: Cloudy, with a high near 45. Breezy, with a southeast wind 15 to 25 mph, with gusts as high as 35 mph.

MORE! Sunny, with a high near 55. Windy, with a south southeast wind 10 to 20 mph increasing to 20 to 30 mph in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 40 mph.

Enjoy the end of daylight savings and sail till dark.

Looks like we might have a few "bumps" weather-wise but it's still blowing strong behind that initial band of showers in Souix Falls and Worthington...

Owatonna Municipal Wind 140 at 22 peak gust 28 plus

Cannon it is! Leaving around 1.

Hey Bill,

Gonna try and make it down there today! Work has been getting in the way of my Cannon sessions this year! Any thoughts on that band of showers to the West? Looks like it should stay SE all day.

Hey Bill. Work has been preventing me from sessioning Cannon's Fall winds. So bummed about that. True SE Pepin?! Gonna try and make it down there today!

Anyone - thinking of pulling out the tiny windsurf gear.

Partly sunny, with a high near 75. Windy, with a south southeast wind 15 to 20 mph increasing to 25 to 30 mph in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 45 mph.

And if it blows this dude puts up daily photos to remind us here in MN of what we're missing
