Sunday 11/30
To all newer kiters, Today could be a great day or your worst nightmare. Lets be smart out there. Choose your kite carefully, keep an eye to the sky and watch for the approaching front. Most of all look at yourself and ask am I ready to ride in 25, gusting much higher. Make sure you establish and maintain distance from fixed objects. If it goes bad pull that release early and be ready with your leash release.
AN INTENSIFYING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES EARLY THIS MORNING WILL MOVE EAST NORTHEAST UP ALONG THE MID ATLANTIC COAST TONIGHT AND MONDAY. AS THIS LOW MOVES NORTHEAST IT WILL DRAG A STRONG COLD FRONT THROUGH WEST CENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST FLORIDA DURING THIS AFTERNOON. AHEAD OF THIS FRONT SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL INCREASE INTO THE 20 TO 25 MPH RANGE WITH HIGHER GUSTS. THESE STRONG AND GUSTY WINDS WILL CREATE ROUGH AND HAZARDOUS BOATING CONDITIONS ON AREA LAKES TODAY.

I got 28 gusting to 37mph @ 10am.
And 31 gusting to 41 @ 11:00am. No wonder I couldn't hold down my 10m! :mrgreen:
