Weather newsletter is johnny on the spot


Sometimes when you need something, it shows up at your doorstep. Recently, Ocean Navigator subscriber Chuck Bishop received our weather newsletter on fog just before he had to deal with fog in San Diego for the first time. The info that our weather newsletter writer Ken McKinley at Locus Weather provided helped Bishop through the experience. Here is his email:

RE: Article on Fog

Dear Sirs:

This article hit home with me as I for the first time in my 8 years of sailing I experienced the full effects of fog while leaving the San Diego harbor entrance at 4:00 A.M. on a return from this years Newport to Ensenada Yacht Race.  This article was sooooo appropriate to my situation.  We were equipped with radar and G.P.S. and we cautiously and slowly maneuvered out of the harbor safely and away from the soup, but it certainly tested my comfort zone.
