Olcott - 6/15-6/16

[benfish909]

We are wanting to head up this weekend but the wind forecast is not looking great but NOAA is saying 2' or less for Sat right now. I am from ohio and NOT super familiar with reading the wind forecast for Lake O. Any ideas what the waves will look like.

Expect double what they say is what I usually notice

Depends. This Sunday after two days of east wind 14kt they forcasted waves around 2ft. Sunday was less than 1ft until around 3pm

 

check the bouy info and noaa forecasts. Look at the hourly one. Follow the trend.

Last Saturday NOAA said it would be calm. We had 3 to 5 footers. Windy App said a foot or less too. Both were wrong. I guess there's no reliable source.

Wish I had 10 bucks for every trip to the launch with 1-3 foot prediction and find 3-5 footers. Very risky to go on wave forecast. What u see when u get there is what it is.

Agree. I use the web cams on the lake shore that you can find for Ontario and base a decision on that of how it looks. That’s been the most reliable.
