Hello Danny,

These days the only wind in the forecasts seems to be promoted by tropical systems and fronts. Thank God the tropical systems don't seem to be making it through to Florida at present. The cold fronts seem to be a factor in keeping the tropical systems away. Still, the fronts have been pretty weak as can be the case early in the season.

So, what does that leave? Fairly localized, small scale bumps up in useable winds. These may be thermal winds that are rarely forecast but just happen.

Best thing is to keep alert to sudden wind through ikitesurf, private anenometers, shoreside livecams, Howzawind and other input from the scene. Carry your gear or have it close to hand and if the wind pumps up, grab some if you can.
