Tuesday's cold front has passed and clear skies are present across Rio
de Janeiro. A morning north westerly breeze at 3-6 knots inside and 10
knots outside the bay was the state of play mid-morning.
Between 11-12 the breeze will change direction to the south east. Inside
Guanabara Bay the breeze will vary between 5-15 knots whilst the
Copacabana and Niterói courses will see 10-20 knots.
The waves that were present on 5 August will continue to roll through the outside courses with high surf expected. Temperate wise, it will increase and peak at 24 degrees by 15:00.
Having lost a full race day the start time and number of races has been increased with a packed day for all ten events. If the weather plays ball the racing is set for a 12:00 start line.
