weather window and tracking url



I've got a two day weather window with clear skies Monday and Tuesday.  That is what a need to start the trip south, a nice day to drive to Charleston and then a nice day to rig and launch.  (It is no fun to rig/launch in the rain.). Low tide at Elliott Cut is 9:11 a.m., I'll need the slack tide to make it through the cut.  And then I'll get an assist from the incoming tide on the Stone River.  Wind forecast for Tuesday is not great but we'll take what we get.
I've created a SPOT tracking page which you can find here, or copy and paste the url below.  No data there now, it should go live Tuesday morning.

I know you are all over the weather but be glad you were not here in
Charleston this past weekend - winter gale blowing scissors and thumbscrews. Have a great trip! -Bill

Yes, had the same wx in Virginia, left this morning with the last bit of wind and rain. Nice drive south.
