Weekend weather weirdness

[wingdiver]

When I look at the various charts on weatherweb the dates seems to be a couple of days ago or even June.

Is that just me being stupid again? /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I am just trying to get something sensible for our intended North Sea crossing and this site was recommended to me.

Hi

Try this web page I have set up on WindGURU.

You should not that it is completely computer generated.
According to Simonjk you should be careful with these.

Thanks to both of you for the input.
Our original plan was to go up to Lowestoft tomorrow and then to Den Helder on Sunday.
However, early forecasts were showing higher winds on Sunday so we considered plan B which is straght to Den Helder tomorrow.
I am now considering Plan C which is Lowestoft this evening followed by Den Helder tomorrow or even to Den Helder overnight from this evening.
We have four people on board so overnight is fine and we all did the trip in worse conditions last October.
I just think if we wait until after Sunday there will still be enough energy in the waves at the beginning of next week for it to be a bit lumpy out there, which may delay the departure until midweek.

Dont wish to appear a party pooper but earlier rather than later, would be my advice, there will be quite a sea running up there late Sunday.

 

[wingdiver]

No. My thoughts exactly hence tonights departure.

Should be a good sail, have a good time.
