Warm and Windy in the River, Nov. 11, 2012


Lakes Superior, Michigan and Huron funnel down through the St. Clair River and when the fast moving current from the north meets a strong south wind a perfect windsurfing situation occurs for the fifth time in a month. Air temps were in the 60’s and the water was a nippy 48 or so. A number of sailors ripped the waves who were new or only occasional visitors to the challenging conditions.
