I think you'd also have to allow for distance from an onshore location.
(possibly a variable distance dependent on forecast wind strength?). E.g, St
Ives is currently offshore, but as the spray cloud covers the entire Land's
End peninsula, it makes little difference.

The sea state makes a difference to, there may be a lot of white water from
a big ground sea, increasing the amount of spray above the wind calculated
value. But sea state is pretty well forecast now, so building that in would
be simple enough.

I think that's about it!
=====================

An example of how things can get over-complicated, happens all the time. If
one is not careful one ends up with something that works over Cornwall and
not elsewhere. Another complication would be cliff top versus sea level
sites.
KISS :-)

Not to mention estuaries, harbours and (narrow-ish) channels.

Oh, I just did!

Not sure a spray forecast would help me.
Although I could have a bucket of water ready for when the wind died down.
