Has anyone noticed for SEQ how the graphs seem to be always showing healthy green 7 days in advance, but when we get there the wind is just 10knot SW crud? This pattern seems to be almost guaranteed for the last few weeks. It is like the carrot in front of the donkey, just keep plodding along waiting for the good wind.

Laurie, is this a sick joke of yours or something?

Simon,

Welcome to SEQld winter winds mate I know it's frustrating when you see on Tuesday it's 25 knots, but really, that's too good to be true once the day arrives lol. Long range wind forecasts aren't always that accurate anyway.

For the winds I always go by SB, and these two links.

Goodwinds, and let's something shows on the weekend! Bring on 25 knots, I am dying to test 6.5 m
