- Good kite forecast: wind 11.4 m/s, gusts 15.7 m/s, no major model differences
- Moderate breeze chance — 71% probability
- Strong wind – experience required (11.4 m/s)
- Significant gusts forecast (15.7 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (5.1°C)
- Wind too light – not suitable (2.5 m/s)
- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 7.6 m/s) (ECMWF 10.1 m/s vs GFS27 2.5 m/s)
- Unlikely breeze — 13% probability
