fort myers to naples race 1-16-2008 up date 68hours
 

Hi to all our fellow kiteboarders
Yesterday we sent e-mails to everyone to watch the wind for Saturday 19th January

Today as of 1-16-08 at 7.00pm the wind is still a little confusing but for now at least they are showing the right direction
Accu weather and weather underground also, they are both saying the same
Winds: NNW at 15mph ,,Wind Gusts: 30 mph ,,Max UV Index: Moderate (3) ,,Thunderstorm Probability: 6% ‘’Amount of Precipitation: 0.04in ‘’Amount of Rain: 0.04in ‘’’Amount of Snow: 0.0in ‘’’Hours of Precipitation: 2 Hrs ‘’’Hours of Rain: 2 Hrs ‘’Hours of Daylight: 10.7 Hrs

If the weather stays the same from now until the weekend we will have the race Saturday( MORNING OR NOON), we will post again 48 THURSDAY hour notice

Stoked to hear we FINALLY have the elements working for us. Seems this weekend will be a true test of our abilities and stamina. You've done a great job keeping us informed and keeping this event organized. Thanks for the update and I look forward to participating in the event! Not to mention the after party... :-)

Feel Wind, Feel Free!
