Background reading: Lake Kissimmee on Wikipedia
Lake Kissimmee covers about 38,000 acres in Florida and is classed as a natural lake.
Water level on this page comes from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reading at Lake Kissimmee, published through the Corps' CWMS data service. Wind, gusts and rain come from the National Weather Service forecast grid that covers the water.
On a lake this size the wind has miles of open water to work with, so a 15 kt breeze can stack up a steep chop in the main basin while sheltered coves stay flat.
The go or no-go calls above are a starting point, not a guarantee. Read how we score conditions, and always check local rules and posted warnings before you launch.
