Tempting Fate, or just tempting?

Anchored out last night and this morning with the SCA in effect for Long Beach; Island White dead astern @ ca. 270 ft. Kinda like a lee shore. A cool Santa Ana wind is arriving from the north at a mere 10 kt. Forecast of any Santa Ana wind is enough to keep most Southern California sailors at home. Actually, the zonal forecast was for winds to 25 kt. It can blow hard in here, but not today (so far)! WindyTy is right on the mark except it may actually be a bit more out of the north than northeast as forecast.

I'm in San Clemente, wind is about 12 kts. mostly from dead east but it's swinging all over, last few days it's started from east then shifted to north in late afternoon around here. Sailing has been great because of the surface conditions, no chop.

NWS & Sector Los Angeles just up-dated; SCA in effect our zone until 1500. No big right now, and likely will not be close to shore.
