Baltic breeze

The sea breeze tends to blow perpendicular to the coast and can reach 20 miles from the sea. Since a strong temperature contrast is required between land and sea surfaces, the maximum strength of the sea breeze is achieved in the afternoon, when the sun is hottest. Wind speed also depends on the orography of the area. Although this is usually a light and pleasant wind, if the orography is steeper, the wind can reach 25 knots. Rekieta Law
