Strange wind for Saturday
Strange wind for Saturday when you look at iKite, but i doubt that will happen.
I'm most likely going to Yirrell, but depends on the wind/waves/my mood i guess.

IKitesurf's Meteorologists
Every forecast that I can find for Boston tomorrow morning, (including IKitsurf's computer model), says E or NE winds cept IKitsurf's super duper special wind meteorologists. They see NW or WNW winds. They're either brilliant or they pick their forecasts at random out of a hat.
If they're right I'll start to trust them a little bit again. Anyone want to take bets?

Yes, they are truly the
Yes, they are truly the outlier. After 20+ years of predicting windsport weather in New England, seldom have I seen WNW coupled with rain and thunderstorms, so I think it's a brain fart.

Nahant will be a washing machine
NE works better at Yirrel. Waves won't be sloppy either but I guess Nahant is just as well.

Always better to be overpowered than underpowered, when in doubt fly a bigger kite!! I liked the idea of Yirrell but I guess I can do Nahant, just need to wait until Gina goes to work at noon time.
