Just checked the weather forcast for today and it looks like another light air day with winds from the North.  Weather.com is reporting N at 8mph and Weatherunderground.com is reporting N at 5 mph. I wonder if the washing machine chop will be there with winds from the North. 

I think I will go read Greg Fishers Article on Sailing Upwind in a Chop again, take a shower and head for McDonalds for a Big Breakfast…
