- Good kite forecast: wind 6.6 m/s, gusts 9.6 m/s, no major model differences
- Significant gusts forecast (9.6 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (13.5°C)
- Unlikely breeze — 1% probability
- Wind too light – not suitable (3.3 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (13.6°C)
- High breeze chance — 80% probability
- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 6.9 m/s) (GFS27 13.4 m/s vs ICON Global 6.5 m/s)
- Strong wind – experience required (13.4 m/s)
