30 C It will be hot on the ground. Stay hydrated. It will be down to 14.1 C in the air.

XC Potential (4hrs)

97.2km downwind XC or 32.4 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 25kph gusting to 35kph In a N () Ridge soaring will be ... probably not a good idea. The chance of it being magic is 81%.
