We downswing all the way into early october, and then that little hump here late october and november.

Bermuda, but it should bypass the island to the east and south as either a category 1 or category 2 that will happen early on saturday and accelerate across the atlantic.

If you boat, winds west or northwest 10 knots and light chop on the bay. Our next tide is the high tide at 6 08, and heres your sevenday forecast. First day of autumn is on thursday.
