    Always add 10 to whatever the forecast says. That gives you the accurate wind velocity on the lake!

    Rust is manageable. Politicians---not so much.

    I think they miss crossing the dash. 5-10 is a misprint. For example: 5-10 should read 5+10, which is 15 mph wind. 10-15 is also a misprint. Should read 10+15, which equals 25 mph winds. Some day, they will realize that and adjust, lol.
