So far in August, I have ridden:

Hoping to at the Atlantic this weekend...
This Friday is looking good...what is the best place to check for wind in Lauderdale by the Sea?
I was looking at sailflow Dania Pier...there is one for Fort Lauderdale, but it looks inland.
Also, does forecast usually hold? In MI it is total garbage. Only created to get your hopes up, only to crush you after you take the day off and waste it waiting for the wind...

The ikitesurf station on the Dania Pier isn't a bad indicator of realtime winds. The same station does an OK job for LBTS as well. A bunch of active links and some live images for weather info appear at:

The NWS marine forecast for the area is about the best one I have found for this area. None are perfect of course. It is looking pretty light. At times like that, if it is clear, you can have afternoon thermal winds that don't usually show up in the forecast.
