Winds are usually only a factor because the cause waves. The factors that cause big waves are wind speed (the faster the wind, the bigger the waves), duration of wind (a wind blowing at 20 knots for 3 days will produce bigger waves than one blowing at 20 knots for 20 minutes), and distance over water the wind has traveled (a 20 knot wind blowing across the ocean will produce bigger waves than one blowing from land to a dive site 1 mile off shore). The good news is Blue Heron is in the intercoastal. The mainland blocks a west wind, Singer Island blocks an east wind, Peanut Island and Palm Beach blocks a south wind and Singer Island blocks a north wind. We won't have a wind blowing over the water for any distance before reaching the dive site. Of course, if a wind is blowing so hard over the ocean that it send a tidal wave over Singer Island, all bets are off.
