Tuesday looking good

Post by Kevinousdigian »

For the last 5 days the 10 day mrf has showed a strong cold front moving through next Monday night. Could be some warm southerlies ahead of it and then Tuesday looks like a colder NWester, probably more wind up north (ie Father Hennepin @ Mille Lacs should be 15-25 in morning).

Note the huge color change from Monday and decent vertical isobars (more up north). Very high likelihood of wind up north, some wind down here.

That front sped up so that now it is sweeping through Monday dinner time. That's good and bad news... bad news is the longest lasting best wind will be during dark hours monday night. Good news: I think they'll be a good 'warm' session to be had monday afternoon evening. I don't know if I could make it but this would be the perfect kind of day for advanced riders to kite Malmo and then do a downwinder and end the day at Father Hennepin as the wind will start S-SW and clock to NW at dinner time Monday. Water temps in 70s still.

I'm going to take a half-day off of work this afternoon. I'll be at Waconia around 3 or 3:30 or somewhere in there.
