There's a chance of a sunset session. It would be nice if this came in a little earlier.

I dunno about you guys, but the default windalert model always seems to disappoint. And BWD isn't calling for much until tomorrow morning, and even then.

Still, fingers crossed

I find that windalert's "plus forecast" is terrible, their regular forecast is decent at certain sites and not so much at others. I don't think it's great for Jericho.

I also don't trust GFS (BWD) that much during Spring and Summer.

TAF is the best thing going this time of year.

Roxstock - Models were bang on. Hope you got some before dark.

No I didn't. I was waiting for something to happen earlier but it came in so suddenly right at sunset.
