Things are changing again with the latest forecast. Stronger winds are returning, anticipated to gust to 35 kts. tonight and tomorrow night. It is strange it is supposed to be substantially stronger tonight and tomorrow evening with lighter stuff (15 to 20 kts.) during the day.

Short version, actual conditions may differ, make sure you are rigged right for actual conditions. The forecast keeps changing but I have a feeling there may be some strong stuff mixed in with this system. Doesn't sound like 12 m weather at all by some of the forecast, smaller kites needed for the stronger stuff and before it hits. Check the wind and forecast wind and make sure you have the right sized kite and experience to go with for actual and developing conditions. Gusts to 35 kts., if it comes in the day, are what that very experienced rider in La Ventana had that was lofted.
