Nitinat this weekend

Post by KC7777 »

OK,

My options are Nicola Lake or Nitinat this weekend.

By Saturday, Port Alberni expected to be 33, Tofino 25+

I have been to Nitinat a ton and know sun is good. But is that too friggin hot? I remember being at Nitinat 2 years ago in June and it was baking hot all along the coast, and it did not blow. It actually went outflow.

I sailed Nicola Lake yesterday (Monday) out of Monck Park campground and it was 5.7, then instantly 4.5, and I was overpowered on a 78L board
for a couple of hours (nice ramps).

Anyone know what Nitinat did today (Tuesday)? And any thoughts on this heat wave for Sat or Sun?

PS if you're interested in Nicola here is a link:

Where to go?

I was wondering the same thing. I noticed the winds were screwy today too!

This is a prediction, and I have found his predictions to be quite accurate.
