Friday’s Wind Recipe by Mike Godsey:
1, The Bodega ocean buoy NW 25g31 as a 3500-mile wide NPH anchors NW wind and chilly upwelling along our coast.
2, A sensor near the Altamont Pass is reporting 21g31 supporting the evidence that the pressure gradient focuses Stockton > Bakersfield which favors coast winds and sites from Angel Islands southward.
3, So low to mid 20’s Crissy parking lot to Berkeley/TP and unreliable Pt. Isabel.
4, Over Coyote and 3rd the STO>BF gradients battle, so launch winds unreliable & often shift W to WNW & even WSW outside due to H92 winds.
5, Moderate WNW ≈ 1000 feet aloft sometimes brings WNW to the Coyote and 3rd launch sites while often disrupting the Pt. Isabel WSW winds.
6, Strong coast winds, Bodega/Dillon/Waddel but HMB lighter. Ocean Beach winds depend on 1k winds aloft disrupting the bubble.
