TJ's looking promising for Friday, and even for a after-work session.

I was just looking at that 2-4 pm looks solid, but 7'-8' tide could make launching kites a tad tricky, no? GFS still saying a little earlier. Bellingham TAF saying quiet morning, GFS Spotter, showing the all-day event.

72nd or 3rd for a safe high tide launch.... Yes WR is a bit sketch

Big upgrade for TAF

4 am actuals showing CB tracking on BWD 2 (which would provide 4 hours of 20+ from 10 am to 2 pm during workable tide) and there is more wind in the north straight than south. Path of front looks good. METAR TAF for Whidbey looks solid (Fri 11am-5pm SSE 20g30) but YVR looks stronger than Bellingham ~ wind/tide looks better for CB than Locust, but its standby for Locust for me today ~

Thanks for the actuals analysis, Dave! In line for 6:20am to Nanaimo.
