Would be interesting to see how skeltic/247 wind diary compares to the mm5 model...is there a way of showing that location on the MM5? Or is it there and I don't see it?

Once the proper launch is finished we can offer some rentals of some 2010 EH gear.

The MM5 wouldn't apply me thinks because the wind in PA is thermal and MM5 is more for atmospheric pressure changes, having kited alot in Squamish I can tell you that the pressure models are a clue as to wahat will happen that day, BUT the computer generated forcast will never calll for enough wind.

Wed 20 knots till the thunderstorm showed up and shut off the wind, and even turned it around.
Thurs 15 knots and cloudy
