- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 9.6 m/s) (HRRR 12.6 m/s vs ICON Global 3.1 m/s)
- Significant gusts forecast (10.9 m/s)
- Wind too light – not suitable (3.5 m/s)
- Wind too light – not suitable (3.0 m/s)
- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 6.0 m/s) (GFS27 9.6 m/s vs ICON Global 3.7 m/s)
- Significant gusts forecast (12.5 m/s)
- Good kite forecast: wind 5.8 m/s, gusts 5.5 m/s, no major model differences
- Light wind – experience required (5.8 m/s)
- Too light wind – kite foiling only (4.0 m/s)
- Rain detected – challenging conditions
