WindGuru is usually one of the most
accurate, but it is best to look at a few. Wind Guru tends to under-estimate for Borth, which is much better than over-estimating!

www.xcweather is another one, looks pretty bad wherever you look tho! May be up Sat night but looking unlikely given the forecast. Wind
and Sun dance needed to please the weather gods!

Yeah, I saw the kites out before I went across, and could see the vans there as i was rigging up... Wind was a bit light when I first
went out, but soon picked up.
It must be Neils age, he gets a little muddled at times!!

he probably forgot to reset his sun dial....not sure how windy it was.....at a guess i'd say about 15 knots...i was nicely powered on
an 11m..but could probably have been on a 9m when the wind picked up.
anyone about tomorrow (tues)....
