Here's my Uncle's boat (courtesy of my cousin) heading out of #sambro harbour early this morning. Wishing all fishers a safe & bountiful season!
After a one day weather delay, lobster boats are heading out to set their traps in Sambro, NS @themurphologist.bsky.social #DumpingDay #ShareYourWeather #Halisky
Left: this morning's wind. Right: tomorrow's wind forecast. Ideally the #wind should be BELOW 26 knots/h (about 48 km/h) for safe conditions to set Lobster traps. Looks like #DumpingDay should be good for tomorrow after being postponed today.
