An intensifying storm system will track well North of the area today. The tightening pressure gradient over the area will produce Southwest winds of 20 to 25 mph with gust to over 30 mph.
A lake wind advisory is issued when sustained winds of 20 to 25 mph or gusts of 30 to 39 mph are expected. Small Boats will be especially prone to capsizing. Boaters in the advisory area should avoid open water and stay close to shore in wind protected inlets. High profile vehicles should use extra caution when traveling as well.
This was the forecast I was greeted with this morning. I was going to go pick up trash on Exchange Island this morning. However I have to paddle across some exposed waters to get to the island. I felt the conditions were not good for the trip and were supposed to get worse as the day goes. I will have to try again another day.
