5 SM; 1.3 hours |
If I could predict the weather with 100% accuracy perhaps we would have slowed our travels and visited a few more places along the canal. But my forecasting and NWS is not 100% so we are here and experiencing deviations from forecast of a few days ago. Pretty nasty weather, particularly winds expected next several days. Thunderstorms and rain, but winds in excess of 20 knots and gusts above 30 are the main weather theme. Yikes, Lake Erie maintains it’s reputation. We are planning on relocating south along the Niagara river to the Buffalo harbor and an anchorage Sunday afternoon weather permitting. One remaining lock, not part of the canal system, lifts five feet from the Niagara river to Lake Erie level and into the protected Buffalo harbor. That is the current plan. At least we have company as the larger loop boats are here too, waiting better weather before getting in/on Lake Erie.
