    Barometer vs Wind: a natural experiment

    This week, IF the weather acts as forecast, a low will be approaching from an unusual direction. Tuesday and Wednesday the pressure will be dropping while the wind is from the west or northwest while on Thursday the wind will finally switch to the south but the pressure will be rising (IF the low moves west as forecast).

    It will be interesting to see which, if either, of these situations the fish respond to.
    People are shocked to see sharks in the water around here.

    If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.

    We are scheduled for arrival on Saturday. I hope this don't ruin the fishing although from what I've seen it hasn't been all that to begin with.

    I would advise anyone thinking of fishing late this week or the weekend to closely monitor the National Hurricane Center and National Weather Service for the latest forecasts and observations concerning this potential tropical system.

    You can also monitor the pressure and wind readings in the Gulf from this site...
