- Good kite forecast: wind 5.1 m/s, gusts 6.0 m/s, no major model differences
- Moderate breeze chance — 64% probability
- Light wind – experience required (5.1 m/s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (9.8°C)
- Good kite forecast: wind 9.0 m/s, gusts 16.0 m/s, no major model differences
- Unlikely breeze — 4% probability
- Significant gusts forecast (16.0 m/s)
- Caution – short wave period (7.9 s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (9.7°C)
- Wind too strong – unsafe conditions (16.2 m/s)
- High gust forecast (25.1 m/s)
- Rain detected – challenging conditions
