Best wind in April, May, September, October and November. Best directions SW and NW. When the water temperature is cold (below 55 degrees from November through March) south west winds will usually not make it across the bay. I can be blowing 25 knots southwest in Virginia Beach, and only 5 knots in Cape Charles because the warm southwest breeze can't make it across the cold bay.
