- Good kite forecast: wind 5.5 m/s, gusts 7.2 m/s, no major model differences
- Unlikely breeze — 17% probability
- Light wind – experience required (5.5 m/s)
- Significant gusts forecast (7.2 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (7.2°C)
- Too light wind – kite foiling only (4.9 m/s)
- Unlikely breeze — 16% probability
- Significant gusts forecast (7.2 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (7.2°C)
- Rain detected – challenging conditions
- High breeze chance — 77% probability
- Significant gusts forecast (13.9 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (7.7°C)
- Rain detected – challenging conditions
- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 5.3 m/s) (GFS27 12.4 m/s vs LEW 7.1 m/s)
- Unlikely breeze — 0% probability
- Strong wind – experience required (12.4 m/s)
- Significant gusts forecast (16.3 m/s)
