I went out for the last hour of the day and visibility was about 14 inches when I left. Not one angler in sight or a fish either. :D

It was pretty dirty at the end of the day, with about a foot of vis, steady rain, and a lot of snow left to melt.

And now a fairly warm West wind to add to the melt.

More bad news now, heavy rain presently falling. ::)

Good evening chris,
Rain and wind in the forecast for the South coastal regions. The North Coast is being hit with high winds and snow. Hang on folks, it's going to be a wet weekend.

I see the river gauge at the Crossing is up a foot so conditions will not be good out there for a few days.
