What the system already calculates
Wind speed and direction, gusts, precipitation and ICON/ECMWF/GFS agreement are compared for this coordinate. The shore-relative working sector is not yet verified, so the result is capped at 68/96 and remains a signal to investigate.
Before travelling
Check data freshness, average wind and gusts, ICON/ECMWF/GFS agreement, the camera, access, rescue and actual launch conditions.
Read the result
A yellow card means modelled wind looks worth checking, but the service has not verified a safe shore-relative direction for the exact launch. It is not a recommendation to travel or launch.
