Default Thanksgiving visit

I might be visiting my sister in Jupiter around Thanksgiving and was wondering what the prospects were of getting some kiting in while there. I'd appreciate any answers to the following questions. I know the questions don't have exact answers - I'm just trying to get a rough idea of what to expect.

How often is it kiteable that time of year in the general vicinity?

What kite sizes are riders typically on that time of year? I have the following sizes: 8m, 9m, 10m, 12m. Is it likely I would need something bigger? Or, put another way, if 12m is the biggest size I bring, am I likely to get shut out over the period of one week?

How are the air and water temps then? Should I bring a shorty? Or a full wetsuit?

Any recommendations on locations in the area? I'm an advanced rider, at home in flat water or chop, and comfortable though not a pro in waves.

I just found this forum today, so I'll poke around a bit to see if I can find some answers to these questions myself. But any input from you locals would be great.

Thanks!
