Alameda - New Years Day

Post by OliverG » Sun Jan 01, 2006 10:40 am

Averaging 28, 11-47

Can somebody bring some small kites?
My smallest is a 10 Type Wave, but it's probably OK....

any advice for later today? Will the wind die down or stay at a lower level. 10 is also my smallest baby.

I think it will be coming down. This morning was pretty wild! Big winds, big gusts, big chop and big fun. Mostly all windsurfers, no more than 2 or 3 kites out at a time.

So it's an hour later and the wind has come down a bit, and up at the same time. 8 to 45. Good day to stay home.:shock:

Meteos are still at odds about tomorrow, but one forecast I saw said 15 to 25 SW in the Bay. Might be better than the nuke fest out there right now.
