Maybe SE coming through Wednesday. Not sure how long it will last.

G-Spot doesn't support SE Wednesday so it may be a waste of a trip

Kind of an odd forecast... EC calling for: "increasing to east 15 to 25 after midnight then veering to southeast 25 to 30 Wednesday morning. Wind diminishing to southeast 20 late Wednesday afternoon and to southeast 10 to 15 early Wednesday evening"

Yet Gpot showing not much in the morning...

And IKite showing decent wind in the evening... (Could be gusty)

Will have to wait and see actuals.

Cars packed with big kites, looking for some wind this afternoon.

OSR 3rd: feels like 15-18kts easterly onshore, knee/waist high rollers coming straight into the beach. Looks like tide is dropping, heading out on a 12m

Nice web cam! Just checked it out for the first time.
Thanks to the host, ( whoever you may be...) very handy for spying on sailors. Not good for calling in "sick" though; apparently my boss found the cam last Friday when we all bailed from work... :)
Have fun out their today!
