Wind has arrived!

After a two week or so absence, side onshore winds have returned to SE Florida, yeeha! Better still, ice box temps have fled, for now too. Looks like useable wind is on for tomorrow and Saturday. Sunday, a new front will clock the wind back offshore from the SW. Hopefully, this front will come with the normal nice NE winds too in a few days.

Anyway, here's a look at the forecast for PBC:

The breeze arrived today at around 11 am and hovered around 10 to 15 as predicted. They've bumped the Friday forecast up slightly, see below:

Rest Of Tonight...East winds 9 to 14 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Isolated showers.

Friday...East winds 12 to 17 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Slight chance of showers.

Friday Night...East winds 11 to 16 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Slight chance of showers.

Saturday...Southeast winds 17 to 22 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters choppy in exposed areas. Slight chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Saturday Night...South winds 22 to 27 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet near shore and up to 5 to 7 feet well offshore. Intracoastal waters choppy. Chance of showers and slight chance of thunderstorms.

Sunday...Southwest winds 15 to 20 knots near shore to southwest 20 to 25 knots well offshore. Seas 2 to 4 feet near shore and up to 5 to 7 feet well offshore. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. Chance of showers.

Good news, they've dropped the rain chance to 20 % now for both Friday and Saturday. It is blowing 16 to 20 kts. in Delray right now so it looks good for tomorrow.

Nice day, 20 to 25 kts. SE with 5 to 6 ft. waves off PBC. Who got some water time today?
