28 C It will be warm and pleasant on the ground. It will be down to 10.1 C in the air.

XC Potential (4hrs)

102km downwind XC or 48 km Triangle Possible by Sport Class Pilot.

The wind on the ground will be from SE . The wind on the top launches will be from SE at 18kph gusting to 29kph In a N () Ridge soaring will be ... probably not a good idea. The chance of it being magic is 92%.
