Not too much to report today.....but a very windy
night as another Low went through - but better now than later! Plan for
today is to get some dhobying done - Richard and Suzie Leaman have kindly
offered laundrette facilities this afternoon, and then a ride to the airport so
that we can meet Seb. So we are all very excited (about the
dhobying.......!)
Forecast is looking fairly stable...a series of
small depressions forming on the long trailing cold front stemming from the main
depression centred over Quebec. So winds from the westerly
quadrant look most likely for days to come - which is very good news
(the ones to avoid around here are the North Easters - as they blow against the
Gulf Stream, creating a steep and nasty sea).
So no final decisions yet, but Monday 1200
departure on the first of the ebb currently looking
favorite..... |
