Thanks for the helpful links Rick. Wish there was truly something worth looking at in regards to wind forecasts. :-) Off-season is so depressing at times, but we do have a new cable park to practice at in North Ft Myers...

You're welcome and I hear you. It is normally potentially depressing for much of the state. Looks like there will be some unseasonal breeze coming through in parts for the next few days. Hope there aren't too many storms.

The trick is to find stuff to keep your mind engaged until the winds return. Also, the odd wind destination trip can help bridge the gap. There are still a few travel deals out there. Have a good summer and keep us plugged in on what folks are doing to pass the time!

Just came across something on the NDBC site. Includes stations worldwide, this view deals with our part of the Basin.
