Sunday 1.30pm.. Looks like wind will reduce by mid-day Monday.
Still possible force 4-5 with gusts to 6. (Rain should have cleared)
I suggest a reduced distance paddle up the west side of the lake, hoping for some shelter. Then return along west shore.
Meet 11.00 for 11.30 on the water only if you fancy a breezy paddle. Understand if people don't fancy it. Please cancel if you wish.
I will rearrange the trip for Monday 14th March.
