Well, you can tell when the sailin' season's over in the Northern Hemi,  the
NG questions and requests show signs of stress from no sailin'.....here they
are again.......I won't make it easy by typing all the locations/ wind
directions.  Everybody dig in and fill in the blanks or add new one's

btw...this list was completed with help from:  Gerald Esschert,  Mike
Eglington, Dave Evans, R.Jackson, Chris Mancusi, Markus Pfannmueller, Peter
Cote, Ted Sommer, Jeff Brown, John Gould,  Bill Nelson, Serge Rezzonico, Bob
U52584, Tim von Alten, Kris Gines, Benjamin LeClerc, Andrew Vrakas, Steve
Bates, J.M. vanderPauw, Yoshi Miizutani and Quim Calaf.

I didn't see Cheyenne, from the Rockies.  and also El Norte, for the
entire Baja penninsula.  In the south pacific(?) there is a region
that gets nailed by the Roaring 40's.

Incidentally, anything off this list would make a good name for a dog
don't you think?.  I want to name my next dog, Chubasco.

And further South are the Howling 50's... These refer to 40 and 50
degrees South latitude.
