May is often the end of wind in the southern part of the state. Sometimes it turns off around mid May, sometimes it makes it into June. This year ... ? Frontal activity plays into this so if some late season fronts make it this far south bringing wind with them, there you are.

There is lots of historical wind for Jupiter at:

Last year didn't look all that bad with rideable conditions for part of quite a few days in May.

Make sure a high pressure system sits offshore hatteras and you'll be set for E or NE wind

otherwise slim pickings

East coast tends to pick up alot more non-frontal activity for longer period than the west coast, fortunately our fronts are still rocking here!
