- Good kite forecast: wind 11.1 m/s, gusts 12.5 m/s, no major model differences
- Strong wind – experience required (11.1 m/s)
- Significant gusts forecast (12.5 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (13.2°C)
- High gust forecast (20.3 m/s)
- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 7.9 m/s) (GFS27 14.0 m/s vs ACCESS-C 6.0 m/s)
- Strong wind – experience required (14.0 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (13.3°C)
