I watched a rolling front slide in under the cloud layer on my commute in this morning. Made me wonder what conditions were like out on the lake. Glad I was driving and not sailing.

Sorry, I used to have a young guy that worked for me name Derek Shaw.

I was referring to your sailing grounds (Canyon Lake) Mr. Crawford. That weather report was for the New Braunsfel, TX airport yesterday afternoon when the thunderstorms were rolling thru.
