Well ....I miss the flooding from last year as the only obstacle.... This is not good. We are hoping to make something work for Sunday.

What’s with the Northeasterly’s lasting 3 days? Seems to always be the case up on Lake Superior as well.

With the heat we had last weekend we were wondering if this might be another year where we actually swim on Memorial Day weekend. Must have jinxed it 
We're going to push the bad stuff your way tonight but it's still going to be a rather cool weekend.

I didn’t pay the membership yet at Crews Nest... Last year she only swam 3 times...so I’m not wishing for swim weather...it will cost me a boat buckWith the heat we had last weekend we were wondering if this might be another year where we actually swim on Memorial Day weekend. Must have jinxed it

There’s always one night of no sleep in PIB. Can’t imagine three straight
The one thing I can do well is sleep on the boat no matter what it is doing...... unless it’s punching me in the arm
Check this out right now live.....and its just getting started

The roughest part I found when at Bay Point in bad weather was at the Marblehead lighthouse. It always seemed as though the waves went in all directions in that area.
I heard both express and miller’s are down today and tomorrow...

I think if I was the guy in the motoryacht (pub Miller ferry webcam), I would have found a dock that is little less exposed. Hope his lines don’t pull the cleats out of the dock. Yikes!
In the last 20 minutes I have been watching, the wind/waves have increased and the water level has gone up about 4 “!!

swam last weekend...
Thats the PIBYC dock...it doesnt have tall boards to hold you off the dock from your rub rail.... I see it there often so he must know something I dont
This was us last year just to the left of the dock in the Miller cam. The night before was 25knot NE winds same as today....we broke both uprights that you can see in the pic and every line needed to be thrown out...two broke through the night
