ikite is forecasting the nuking day to be Monday... that we will maybe see some great action is enough to make me happy.

toby wilson 06-09-2006 08:05 AM

I'm in either day regardless. I have to go pick my parents up Sarasota Airport at 12:30 PM on Sunday but after that will head on up to EB!!! :D

BigR 06-09-2006 08:51 AM

Don't be so sure

There might be a boatload of rain with that system

Optionryder420 06-09-2006 08:58 AM

I'm off on Sunday and Tuesday... let's hope for wind those days!

bryanleighty 06-09-2006 09:37 AM

true w/ the rain .... but that just makes it more fun dontchathink?

i got in a rain-soaked session a few weeks ago and had a blast.. it did lighten up here and there.. but for a couple 20 min periods it was pouring.. (and the wind kicked in too)

if we are talking thunderstorms here.. i'll stay at home and watch world cup soccer.
:)

BigR 06-09-2006 09:43 AM

Yes and no,

We are talking about a tropical system here that will roll over tampa or just north.

What this means is maybe a ton of rain maybe a little, prolly a ton

lightning ? possible

wind? anywhere from 25-75kts possible................

inferno 06-09-2006 09:48 AM

can a flat kite do 25-75 knots?

BigR do you think i can hold down my 14m in that? :shock:

BigR 06-09-2006 09:51 AM

No, flat kite , 7m CB, willl do about 25-50kts max maybe 55kts

this can be seroius flooding if the track of 90L , alberto, remains just north of tampa bay,. that squeezes all the water straight up the bay :oops: :oops: :oops:

Raul,

Do you think I can hold down my 25.5M Machine in that type of weather? :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

JoshTaylor 06-09-2006 10:30 PM

YESSS ENOUGH WIND FOR MY ONLY KITE!!!


7 METER SWITCHBLADE:)

BigR 06-10-2006 12:25 AM

You have enough wind for a 7m SB in 20kts


50kts is overkill
