Yep, I was gonna go out earlier, but there wasnt really enough wind in the estuary (about 20 knots) and it was pretty miserable down
there too...
Maybe tomorrow if the wind sorts itself out properly.

Sorry Neil, don't think I will make your birthday party as it's too cold for me and Che (the van). Been on Lake Vyrnwy Mid Wales today
for work and the wind cut through me like a knife and the snow wasn't easy to get through either.
So rugby in a nice warm pub or possible kite in freezy bo****ks estuary water coming of the frozen mountains, let me think .... pub. Soz Neil have a nice birthday.
Never know if we get a sudden heat wave may make it for Sunday  .

Me too... if theres wind in the morning I shall be out for a high tide session at first light.
Would like to do a low tide session off the seafront as well but its Morgans 1st birthday so I have to be at home for the afternoon.

the wind is mental, where did that come from 
I know Al's weather station gave a wind forecast, but it is blowing a hoolie at the moment.

Nice out there isn't it.... I went across to the seafront first thing this morning expecting to find at least 30 metres of nice flat
water next to the beach, but the whole sea was just white with foam!
It has eased off a little now and the sun is shining, but is still averaging around 30 knots with close to 40 knot gusts at times....
Weather station recorded a max of 44 knots just after 9am this morning, I was stood (for as long as I could manage) measuring the wind
with my handheld anemometer down at the estuary for a while and got a max of 40.2 knots... Certainly is blowing a hoolie out there.
Would love to go out for a session now that it has settled down a bit and the tide has dropped, but Morgans friends are due around any
minute now and I don't think I can afford to miss his first Birthday.
