algumas informações:
Forecast
tables
Every
forecast table shows a model initialization time (top left corner)
which is in UTC (GMT), all the other times are in local time. The last
row of the forecast shows a MapQuest link (which is a nice map server
- if you click you will see where the spot is located), next are
location coordinates and timezone - if the timezone is set correctly
it should automatically adjust daylight savings time if it is active.
Next to the little sun icon are the times of sunrise and sunset in
local time (these are really sunrise and sunset, NOT dawn and twilight).
There are these informations in the forecasts:
Wind
speed: wind speed in 10
meters above surface
Modified
windspeed: A little more
explanation here: The model will catch the effect of big mountains
like Alps (you may see that with Mistral wind in Golfe du Lion for
example) but can't see the microscale effects important for conditions
at your smaller lake. The idea of "modified wind" is to estimate how
good the wind will be at locations which are more senstitive to wind
directions but the model does not realize it. Because of the landscape
around your spot the wind may be better when it blows from one
direction but worse when it blows from the other.
Temperature:
temperature in 2 meters above ground
Cloud
cover: total cloud cover
in percent (low, middle, high clouds all together)
Rain:
rain in milimeters for the last 3 hours
Windguru
rating: How good the
windsurfing conditions will be? exact numbers of stars depend on
your user settings but default should mean something like this:
|
|
= It should be OK, but big sails
only (7.x meter sails)
|
|
|
= Very good wind. Don't leave
your 5.x meter sails at home!
|
|
|
= Superb! It's a crime to ignore
such a day!
