I'm hanging out for a summer arvo kite session
.
It feels like it has been a long winter to me.
When will we start getting the first seabreezes?
I'm thinking the start of October is this right?
I'm hoping today, but guessing 30th September.
Hey Reli when do the jacaranda's usually flower, and is there anyway to speed up the proccess with the right fertilizer or something.
wasn't there a comp last year to predict the first green arrow seabreeze of the season?
'bout time we started that again this year, but we should do one for NSW kurnell graph as well.
Late August last year in Sydney I think last year, Col and I rode to Kurnell from Brighton and back. Cabron was testing the SB3's at Brighton. It was a great day approx 16-20 knots at Kurnell, and about 12 -18 at Brighton.

Not quite a true sea breeze but close enough for this time of the year.
6 kites out, knee to waist deep water, sun out all arvo and a good time had by all
Yep over here in dodgy Whyalla we got our first promising seabreezes on the weekend.
Fark it was like a summers day (apart from the water temp) Sun was shining, knee deep water and watching that wind kick up when the tide turned.
Friday arvo was 12-18, Saturday got up to 15-22, and Sunday got up to 15-20. All clean southerly afternoon sea breeze. Its not the usual 20-30 knt southerly, but better than nothin!
wish the days will heat up i reeeaaallly want a summer kite at the beach!
, i know the perth kiters expect their super-charged seabreezes at start around late september but what about newcastle on the east coast, when have they started in the past?
You all asked for it, you got it.
