The 2012 WRE starts in Zapata, Texas, on Saturday with a forecast
of local light winds, which can be good for triangle and out and return record
attempts, but not for long distance records. The south southeast winds may start
up again at the end of the week, but there is also a nascent disturbance heading
for the Gulf. We're hanging in Austin enjoying the local music scene (saw Ralph
Stanley, 85 years old on Wednesday evening).
