Hello.

Just wondering what your words of wisdom may be for the wind, for the next 3 days for the Manzinata area? I can go Mon/Tues or Tues/Wed depending on the wind/waves. Planning to surf in the am, but really was hoping for afternoon wind. I am a little wind-desperate... and have to travel alone from BC, and the forecast seems to be downgraded a little, so now thinking of staying local.

Thanks a lot for your help. Will NOT snake/drop in on any of your waves! Wink

George

Thank you so much for your reply, and that is a wonderful link you gave me.

I think I'll stay close and visit there another day.

Thanks again! Good winds to you Aeolus.

Thanks for that info. I hadn't noticed the 'forecast' section. That's great for me as trips are few and far between, and I just wanted to ensure it's worthwhile. Interestingly there is little wind these 2 days. I had it in my mind that if there's high pressure at the coast, it'll be windy, but I wasn't aware that the thermal low can shift up and down. (please correct me if my thinking is wrong) I'll pay more attention from now on.

Thanks again.
