¡Buenos dias! An Oceansat satellite pass around midnight measured light southwest to southeast winds over the southern Sea of Cortez, and all of the most recent numerical model forecasts show we will have one more day of light winds. Model forecasts continue to be in excellent agreement that a fresh pulse of north background flow will arrive on Saturday, and with only some patchy thin, high clouds expected, we should see a good thermal boost as well. The background north flow will likely peak on Sunday, but models show the high cloud cover will become more dense, so our local thermal may be dampened a bit. Just enough north flow is forecast to remain on Monday to give us one more rideable day, and with sunny skies expected, we should see a significant thermal boost. A light wind regime is then expected to return on Tuesday and last for several days.
