- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 5.7 m/s) (GFS27 10.5 m/s vs ECMWF 4.9 m/s)
- High breeze chance — 78% probability
- Strong wind – experience required (10.5 m/s)
- Significant gusts forecast (16.0 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (5.1°C)
- Wind too light – not suitable (3.9 m/s)
- Moderate breeze chance — 50% probability
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (5.0°C)
- Wind too light – not suitable (4.4 m/s)
- Unlikely breeze — 13% probability
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (4.9°C)
- Too light wind – kite foiling only (4.4 m/s)
- Wind too light – not suitable (4.1 m/s)
- Moderate breeze chance — 69% probability
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (4.9°C)
- Too light wind – kite foiling only (4.1 m/s)
- Good kite forecast: wind 6.0 m/s, gusts 11.1 m/s, no major model differences
- Unlikely breeze — 8% probability
- Light wind – experience required (6.0 m/s)
- Significant gusts forecast (11.1 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (4.9°C)
- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 5.1 m/s) (GFS27 9.1 m/s vs ECMWF 4.0 m/s)
- Low breeze chance — 25% probability
- Significant gusts forecast (13.9 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (4.9°C)
