It's ON!!!! Finally.
Up north and down south, Friday and Sunday.
Looks like some pretty decent cold fronts will be pushing through.
It will be cold, windy and wild and sheep will be flying through the air.

Bell Buoy should provide some classic conditions up north, with good wind and decent waves.


Bring on the winter.

It is Windguru.
I used it a lot when I lived in Europe, and it wasn't too bad. I think it uses the standard GFS forecasting model like most of the other weather websites do.
Has a nice graph mode too.

It was a good day yesterday at Bell Buoy and East Beach.

Bell Buoy was a bit gusty and messy in the morning with a few squalls coming through, but provided some good waves of the point.
East Beach was much sunnier in the afternoon after the front passed through, but with lighter wind and smaller waves.

I got some photos of Al, Paul and Rafa sailing East Beach.
