33 C It will be hot on the ground. Stay hydrated. It will be down to 10.2 C in the air.

XC Potential (4hrs)

100.75km downwind XC or 71.5 km Triangle Possible by Sport Class Pilot.

The wind on the ground will be from NNE . The wind on the top launches will be from NNE at 4kph gusting to 17kph In a N () Ridge soaring will be ... probably not a good idea. The chance of it being magic is 0%.

Guide

This is aimed primarily at the club level pilot who wants to know what to expect for the next week.

Data is calculated from the GFS model data using the RASP calculations daily.

Wind strengths are graded for aircraft suitability.

Wind speeds are average wind speeds, gusts will be higher.

Conditions are graded for how the average pilot will feel about them.
