Alright, everyone seems to have gone quiet on the first seabreeze of the season.

I'm worried. Anyone else? Thought it would be well-and-truly on by now.

<Sigh>

i thaught last few weeks have been sick sessions, the seabreeze is starting to come in more consistantly now aswell, we've had a fair few good seabreezes as well as a few good frontal days. i dont see what you guys are complaining about..

next thing you know the winds gona be in and the complaints going to be aww its too strong...

you should consider us lucky to have this wind at all, some other locations get sweet FA. glass half full not half empty.

Yeah there's been a few days. What I mean though is the "season", when it blows warm wind most days and if you can't get down one day due to work or family, then there's always the next day. Think sci hit it on the head, it's just not warm enough yet. Here's hoping - late start, late finish.

yeah these different conditions are nice because it puts us outside the normal we're used to.. sometimes i like those messy gusty sessions just because its something different for once.

Yeah,

I think October was pretty good. We had like 10 days straight where we were teaching at the beach in decent winds and it was sunny everyday. We did get a week of trash, but if you average it out, I reckon it's been one of the windiest Octobers in a while.

It sure ain't warm, but thats what December and January are for.

Love the wind!

Good winds, yes, very good winds ,

We've just had 10 years of some of the worst dry weather on record, and its now getting back to relatively normal. Methinks we're a bit spoilt by the Elle Ninja thingy.

Yeah that's just what I am concerned about - that this kind of unsettled mush is the norm and that the "true" 6-7 month season (Oct - Mar/Apr) may not happen this year.

May have to plan an "up-North" holiday methinks.

Cheers.
