Just noticed a cold front squall line moving through. I frequently do catch these unless I am planning on going out myself but I saw this one. It has spiked the wind in several areas up to around 40 mph in Jensen Beach for instance. The squall line is starting to move into the north part Broward County, sliding down through Miami-Dade and the Keys in coming hours. The wind spikes don't seem to be in the hazard or regular forecast, not that uncommon btw. We need to know our weather for kiting, it isn't that hard to do.
It would really suck to hear of some guy getting lofted to China in an obvious threat like this that can be readily anticipated. Take care.
