Take at look at this prediction from meteorologist Cliff Mass:

Cliff Mass Weather Blog: An Extraordinary Storm Approaches
Spent the day at anchor in the San Juans. Definitely some 50+ gusts. Would heel the boat over quite a bit. About 30 foot of water and had 200 foot of chain out. Love my Fortress anchor. The boat "sails" a lot and it was a little nerve-wracking when it was sailing and coming up on the rode when a gust hit. Kept waiting for something to give. Fortunately nothing did and the Masters kept coming in clear.
I'm also tired of the snotty weather. The only saving grace is we are snug in the Marina for the time being. The admiral is getting real "Antsy", but we may see a window in 9-11 days to head north.
We need to be up near Port McNiel before ASD catches up with us, cuz that "Trawler" of his can cruise 4 times faster then us.
