modelled
A weather model's cell over this place, not a station on it. Good for comparing places, weaker for one beach.
Modelled from the operational forecast archive at 1.5–7 km (2023-2024), daylight hours only, not a ground station: it resolves thermal, lake and valley winds far better than coarse reanalysis but still tends to understate a strong local thermal. A windy day has at least three consecutive daylight hours at 12 knots or more. The typical daily max and the direction are columns of the table above, month by month. Highlighted months are the riding season from the spot record.

Rider tips
- Bring everything: no school, rental or repair is listed anywhere on this lake.
- Aim for April or November, and pack the big kites or a foil for a 7-14 kt average.
- Walk the beach before you rig; depth, bottom and hazards are undocumented here.
- Ask around Shchuchinsk-Burabay where riders actually go, because the neighbouring listings on this lake may be the same stretch of shore.
