Fly-in on Sunday 19th November - Walmer.

Weather permitting we will be flying on the beach to the rear of 'The Borrowpit' car park Kingsdown Rd, Walmer. Postcode CT14 7LH or what3words tilts.coolest.breakfast will get you close.

I can find no road closures at the moment that will affect this location, however, keep your eyes peeled and if anything crops up I will post it here.

Been keeping an eye on the weather forecast for Sunday. Whilst Saturday is forecast to be wet and windy, Sunday is due to be sunny but my app shows a high percentage possibility of rain although no actual rainfall. The winds however look like they will be extremely blustery with 22mph gusting to 39mph. Conditions don't look like fun to me. I will await your comments before writing this Sunday off.

Even my forecast has increased the wind speeds up to 24-25 mph with gusts of 36-40 mph south-westerly, not the weather for kites!

I will make a late decision tomorrow. If anyone could provide a local weather report in the morning it would be appreciated.
Unless the forecast improves I will be sheltering indoors.

Upper Deal Weather Station is temporarily closed for live observations.

Maybe the Walmer Weather Station could step in for a local weather report.

I've just checked the Deal Cumulus weather station. It says wind is 19mph, gusting to 35. The forecast suggests 34kph gusting to 60 throughout the day, with showers possible from 3pm. Think I'll stay at home

Gusting nicely here in Ashford, will be staying nice and warm inside today.

Looking out of my windows 13 miles north, the trees are swaying in a 15 - 20 mph wind which has gusts in the high 20s and low 30s.
Not for me.
