Today’s Weather In Barcelona

It doesn’t look like a nice day today at all in Barcelona.

While the temperatures will be in the mid 20s, there will be rain and lightning, neither of which are very nice on a yacht; carbon fiber does not conduct electricity so the risks of a lightning strike are slim on the boats.

The 14 Knott winds will push the boats along very nicely for the 5 races scheduled for this afternoon.

The sea state will be very calm today with barely ripple across the water, the swell around 10-20cm.
