Hi Gang,

You have probably noticed that this has been an unusual spring. Well the strong wind starting tomorrow will see solid wind but the cause is unusual... a spinning venting low pressure in the Columbia Basin.

To see the major players in this blow check out the jut updated animations in this blog:

http://blog.weatherflow.com/gorge-goes-great/

Remember when looking at the animations that the current models do not "see" the walls of the Gorge and the resulting venturi effect on the wind velocity.

See you on the water!
