Ringed months are the ones riders and schools name: Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Nov, Dec.

Nothing has been measured or modelled for this place: twelve months and no figure in any of them. The months riders name are all there is.

riders' months

Riders and schools name these months. The model reads lower here, and both are shown rather than averaged.

Wind on the beach

  • Cross-shore on the easterly that dominates the season, swinging fully onshore through SE, S and SW.
  • West wind is cross-shore the other way.
  • North and NE come off the island over road, palms and power lines and are not used here.

What the spot record warns about

  • Swimmers and tourist beach traffic
  • Parasail and other watercraft operate nearby
  • Power lines and South Roosevelt Boulevard immediately behind parts of the launch
  • Swimmers, sunbathers and heavy public beach traffic
  • Trees and palms causing wind shadow/rotor near shore
  • Jetties/groins and wave breakers
