- Good kite forecast: wind 7.8 m/s, gusts 9.3 m/s, no major model differences
- Significant gusts forecast (9.3 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (5.1°C)
- Unlikely breeze — 6% probability
- Rain detected – challenging conditions
- Significant gusts forecast (12.0 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (5.3°C)
- Unlikely breeze — 2% probability
- Rain detected – challenging conditions
- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 5.9 m/s) (ECMWF 12.4 m/s vs LEW 6.5 m/s)
- Strong wind – experience required (11.3 m/s)
