Thurs., 2/27--Rideable?

Post by nick_80044 » Wed Feb 26, 2014 5:15 pm

My tea leaves are showing me that tomorrow afternoon will be no rain/partly sunny, temps around 60 and wind could be in the mid-teens. Direction might be a little off, though.

I'm in the East Bay so I'm looking at Berkeley or Alameda.

Your thoughts?

Nick, I got out on Tuesday at Racetrack, will be looking over there or Berkeley tomorrow. There were a bunch of hydrofoil riders out, saw their kites so stopped in and had a blast.

Those darn foilers are everywhere :P For us weekend warriors, anyone want to predict Saturday/Sunday. It was looking okay for a swing back to the SW but each day it gets worse. Windalert now saying the front comes through Saturday 3am and the wind dies for the rest of the weekend :( Give me hope here please!

Nice! I stopped by Berkeley on Tuesday and it looked rideable. Was kind of wondering why no one else showed up. Now I know why. "?%#

I was out at alameda yesterday morning for about 40 min before the rain showed up and the wind died. Fun light wind sesh.
I would go east bay if I had time for it today but I don't...
Tomorrow has potential too. _+_+

It's beautiful here in Emeryville today. The bay looks calm as heck. False alarm. :"*!

work and friends are destroying my kitesurfing relationship, but I was able to watch you guys out at Alameda. http://boardsportsschool.com/weather/webcam/
