💨Wind
🔥 Thermal: Mostly Bise / Vaudaire / Joran; the day breezes (rebat, séchard) are light, the séchard never reaches the Haut-Lac. Usually from SSE, strongest around 17:00.
🌅 Morning wind: 'Morget': night land breeze NW-NE between Morges and Rolle, rarely more than 12-15 kn, until about 7-9 h, from N.
FoilFlow checks the thermal conditions every day (sun strength, wind aloft, Föhn, Bise and the lake's own pressure rules) and shows when it is likely.
Forecasts from several weather models (e.g. ICON, AROME, HARMONIE) and live measuring stations nearby are in the app.
💡Good to know
- Morget breeze between Morges and Rolle; harbours must be sailed around
