Here comes the tropical system, soon tropical storm, with luck for South Florida just some wind (useable for the most part) and rain. I would watch out for squalls as always. A kiter was badly hurt already by a squall from the system in Puerto Rico. Would be great not to add to that number through carelessness. Looks clear out for the next little while with rising winds today with squalls inbound later on.

NICE thermals yesterday before the squalls struck from inland. Seemed similar today but without all the fireworks around Ft. Lauderdale. Anyone get a session in? It must have been close to 20 at points last night when it was supposed to max 9 kts. side offshore!

Great session again tonight, had another one Monday. Today there were these real nice 4 to 5 ft. ground swells forming about 300 ft. off the beach. NICE ramping swells! No squalls either and the wind was pretty good until after sunset when it eased a bit. Who else got some nice water time in today?

2 great days down here in Islamorada. A little gusty for some reason but got better in the afternoons. Tuesday afternoon on my 8m and yesterday on a 10m. A great summer session yesterday till I tomahawked my 10m and blew it up good thru the LE to the TE. $ = Not many people riding which also made it nice.
