The wind has been extending the incoming tide about an hour and a half from the Weeks Bay tidal prediction since it started blowing out of the East. It has also slowed the falling drastically. Every once and a while the wind will let up for 30 min or so and the water will drop 6". The sudden drop in water level has bitten me in Vermilion Bay more than once. It's unforgiving in November and December. The tides at the Point and Weeks Bay are wacky with a ESE wind. Southwest Pass is not as affected.
