We get some seabreezes here in the spring for sure. Usually N to NW.
It helps to have windflow already in the air from a passing front. A NE wind in the am helps to create a N to NW seabreeze in the pm.
Bright sunny days are the best IMO. If its overcast, that pretty much kills the effect.
Some have noted a 25 degree plus temperature change from the morning low to the afternoon high also is a helpful factor.
It is yet to be seen if this unusually cold water we have will have any effect on better seabreezes. We will get them regardless, the question is will we have more of them than normal due to the cold water in the gulf.
Have to wait and see.
Scott has been following the wind around here as long as anyone and I am sure will have some helpful info on the subject.
