not that im a wind expert, but before it hit zero it was blowing from the NE and just after it hit zero it was blowing from the ENE, that doesnt sound to much like a seabreeze kicking in, but i could be wrong :?:

Skyway Scott 05-12-2006 12:40 PM

No worries. That's why I hit most seabreezes alone (cuz everyone says "I am no expert, but its blowing zero" :P )
Just watch the screen, I will be riding within the hour.
By the time the SW sensor registers, and you decide to drive out and rig, half of the seabreeze is done, and it's on the downswing :(

inferno 05-12-2006 12:52 PM

i know, but most of the time the sensor hitting zero is only a good sign when it is blowing from the east, then it hits zero just before it switches west and starts cranking, i believe you were the one who told me that its not as good for a seabreeze if it starts out blowing from the west....

If it doesn't, I'll be skunked at the Skyway..."Skunked at the Skyway" sounds like some cheezy reality series or something... :lol:

Skemp,
You ready for another d-winder at the causeway?

skempthepimp 05-12-2006 01:59 PM

that sounds real nice. Do you think we could launch though with the off shore wind on the causway

Call Me 813 918 2173

Another idea is a beach downwinder. Maybe sand key
