New Providence Thermal Winds?

[ricki]

Do you guys get thermal winds over there to speak of? That is regular winds that crank up somewhat regularly at certain times of the year as the land starts to heat up in late morning or afternoon? Cabarete gets these but they seem to amplify trades that are already in the area. During the day anyway. At night the "undertaker wind" dampens out the nearshore trade winds often enough.

Anyway, are thermals much of a factor on your island?

They can be hit or miss in Florida. Some years, distantly in the past it seems, they cooked off regularly. We "may" be seeing a come back now. More at: http://fksa.org/viewtopic.php?t=638

Anyway, hope you guys are getting some good wind time on the water over there.
