Im a bit confused by the forecasts at the moment... Having been watching the Wx for the last few days the forecasts appear to have been showing considerably less than the trees outside my window and the indicator on Chi beacon have been saying..

Makes me treat the forecast for the next few days with caution!

At present Im preparing for a wet trip in the dinghy..Chi beacon says actual F5-F7 Metcheck was 15kt

weather is following <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.theyr.net>http://www.theyr.net</A>'s predictions pretty exactly at the moment, and has been for a couple of days.(Chi and other stations)......

however predictions beyond 0100hSunday not yet given so the small question of Sunday's wind being WNW -> N is still in the hand's of Ken's prayers right now!!!!

Chichester boys should be OK but those from Poole look like having a reasonably long trip either way.
