Wind – April 8, 2025

¡Buenos dias! An Oceansat satellite pass just after midnight confirmed that the norte has died, as it measured NNW winds of around 10 knots over the Sea of Cortez just east of Cerralvo. The vast majority of model forecasts show we will see sufficient background north flow remaining today to help jump-start our local wind machine. Infrared satellite loops early this morning showed another sunny day ahead, so we will also see a good thermal boost. Models continue to show a light wind regime setting in on Wednesday and lasting into next week. Extended-range model forecasts do show hope for a return of some north flow during the middle of next week.
