|

lake (didn't see any windsurfers either). The weather was fantastic,

Tomorrow (Fri) shows good isobars all over the place, but the
forecasts for Carlyle are inconsistent...Weather.com says 15-25, but
all the other sites show it lower. KC is more of a certainty, with... more »

Smithville Lake tomorrow Sunday October the 18th?

This may be our last chance of getting in the water at decent
temperatures until next Spring. NOAA is forecasting 20mph base wind
with gusts up to 29mph and Weather underground is predicting 18mph.
Anybody up for a day trip? Wind speed is predicted to peak between 2
and 4 pm with very good wind between 1 and 5pm (4 hours), so we'd be... more »
