Windy!

Strong southerly winds blew up an OK swell yesterday on Lake Oahe. Both my nephew and I windsurfed primarily in the mouth of Cow Creek for a couple hours. We finished just as the wind ramped up a notch from 30-40mph to gusts hovering in the upper 50s. A small point break formed on the Okobojo Pt. side of Cow Creek making for decent rides and jibes. A short video of my nephew sailing can be viewed here.

Once the big winds filled in we both agreed that the session satisfied our high wind craving as we happily de-rigged. While de-rigging we recounted our previous two days of sailing and wondered if this streak heralded a change back to a weather regime more conducive to windsurfing than bicycling. Time will tell.
