plenty of good kiting up here in the seattle area.
christian is right, check pskite forum to see where the locals are hanging out.
either double bluff, richmond beach or on lake washington.
the pskite forum has a webpage dedicated for beach info.
if you have more questions, feel free to hit me up.
Check out the forecast and keep watching it as it changes very fast.
forecasters are always changing it.
