Melbourne had a good early season last year, up until early December, then it was horrible.

Please let the cool, clear still mornings, with the sea breeze kicking in about 3pm happen this year!

^^we had the same in WA...was an epic start to the season up to xmas. Was on my 6 most days up til then.

It was around xmas when last years la nina really started to become a significantly strong one. Lets hope this one stays weak or at least mild. If so southern WA should be spared.

southern WA was like living in the tropics second half of last summer.

Don't understand why all the talk about "La Nina Returning"

Here are the data. La Nina = bars trending above the zero crossing.

Does someone see something that I don't?

Looks to me like it's trending down.

The best days we had after the new year were bloody easterlies. But after 3 months of SOLID kiting, my body was sooo sore. When its windy kite, when its not we do all those other things we neglect to kite. If WA sucks, move to another state, leave the biggest waves outside of Hawaii 3 hours from Perth, and butter flat 25-30 knots 10 mins from my house to me.

As you can see from your graph Aug went up significantly and Sept spluttering downwards after the usual downward trend over winter after a la nina .There is cool water in the eastern pacific off Peru and warm water in the western pacific which is typical in a la nina year but there are a couple of strange occurences too such as warm water just to the north of the equator in the eastern pacific and also cooler than normal water off the QLD coast .Nevertheless it is good news

Here is my long-term uniformed purley speculative forecast. From now until this time next year it's going to blow a lot which means lots of sessions. Happened like that last year and I reckon same again.
Well at least in WA anyway
As for everywhere else who knows?
Kite safe and enjoy!

^^^ But de gangstas be in prison man. Well wicked. Dat be da real topic man. La Nina la schmina, we get enough wind out de subwoofer ports man wid dese bangin beats.

But seriously, I red it as Jung list. Perhaps a list of people with the surname Jung, or perhaps one of Carl's famous shopping lists that's accrued a fan club?

What was the topic again, oh, the weather, smalltalk time eh, sorry to interrupt.
