Yesterday was quite good at 3rd between 5 and 7 pm - well powered on a 5.2.
The pager numbers for 3rd have to be taken with a grain of salt because
the sensor is rather poorly located. The Coyote sensor is a better
indication for the wind in the channel.

Rough rule of thumb that seems to work with sensor readings:

If coyote > 18 and 3rd > 15 it is likely sailable on mid 5's or smaller.
