Yes, it's going to be windy with a helluva wind chill. My 15:00 forecast is below (remember we are almost 300 m up and I anticipate about 1°C colder than at sea level). Stay in bed on Sunday! :) :)

Here in Chloraka the sea especially by the wreck looked stormy, but even more so around Potima Bay whenI returned from a trip to Coral Bay. Now the wind is howling around my house. Our night temperatures are expected to be around 3-4 c. Over the weekend ,but with the wind chill it will feel much colder..
