i stopped by berkeley around 2pm but windline was way outside and seemed like a repeat of day before when it never came in, so went to Marina Bay. Glad it finally showed up and people got some, heard that kiters were out until almost sunset there

I was amazed it didn't do the typical Berkeley evening fizzle. It was punchy with the normal Bzerkly connect-the-gusts and I was worried it would lay down just before sunset, but that upper level trough kept it pulling through all the way til dark.....weird cloud formations. But just beautiful. And lonely. I was so glad when another kiter pulled up.
