if the models hold, then it should be a NE wind, pretty good for galveston... there will prob be some kiters around the seawall somewhere... or maybe the state park...

the seawall would prob be better for safety reasons, though might prove tough launch depending on the actual direction of the wind- the wind signature might be troublesome
