By month
All 6 of the atlas's destinations in Australia are in season in December.
The recorded main wind is a thermal sea breeze at 3 and a named regional wind at 3. The highest modelled share of windy days in December is 74% at Melbourne; the share is known for 3 of the 6. 4 of them have a spot that takes beginners.
Showing all 6 destinations.
modelled windy
The modelled series at one of the destination's spots puts December at half its days or more with three or more hours over 12 knots. That share is enough on its own: a spot here may or may not also name December among its best months.
riders' months
A spot names December among its best months while the model reads under half. Both figures are drawn and neither is adjusted.
no series
No spot at the destination carries a usable modelled series, so the months are the ones riders and schools name.
2 destinations
A spot's modelled series reaches 50% of December days or more. That share is enough on its own: a destination here may or may not also have a spot naming December among its best months.
