[status] A front caught up with us at 2200 last night and gave us squalls to 35kn and rain and long periods between of 10-15kn. The front was gone by 0300 this morning and was replaced by much colder SW-SSW winds of 20-35kn. These winds are slowly decreasing. We're well reefed down but will shake out some more sail this afternoon. The sun is shining and we're all in good shape.
