Some forecasts are looking good, others not so good, but could be one last session for the year.

TAF not looking so good, hopefully it's upgraded in the morning. Looks like a chilly one if it does happen.

Tough call. Is 4°C really worth it?

4c is not worth it. 7mm, 6mm wetsuit, half sank in water, surfing, , makes sense, if full body has to be over water in 25 knot wind, must be painful after 1 hour.

15 knots ENE at Jericho right now.

G-spot looks pretty good for Lighthouse Park today but I wouldn't want to kite there alone. Might be decent surf there for an hour after the wind shuts off too.

Waiting for 25 knots SE; Southern strait forecast is out of wack, peak at 10 am but no proper wind yet, gusty; may be another rubbish forecast.
