One of the great things about downloading weather grib files rather than images, is the ability to drill down through the data. ExpeditionLT (downloadable from http://www.iexpedition.org/downloads.html) enables gribs to be viewed, but also the information from a point can be viewed as a time series.
Global Forecast System – NOAA – time series for Auckland
Predict Wind 100km resolution – time series for Auckland
Summary: it still looks wind for the weekend, great that we currently have a No 3 jib on the floor at Windward Sails. This is almost as exciting as the main – filling the gap in our sail wardrobe between 25 knot and storm jib.
