Yea looks like NW this Sunday. Unfortunately, there's not really anywhere to ride here on a NW straight off the beach. NW is like the magic direction that totally screws you over here. Your only bet is if you have a boat, you can go way outside on Stiltsville or even better all the way out to Soldier Key.

If it ends up being NNW, it'll be straight sideshore up at Jupiter. If it goes WNW or straight west (pretty unlikely), you can go to Tigertail Park in Marco Island on the other side of Florida. However, if it's too north there, it gets VERY gusty. I wouldn't make the drive over there given the current forecast.

Hopefully it'll turn north, we'll see!
