I must say, it's a perfect (looking) forecast for local soaring. Reasonable lift, light & variable winds...and the buoyancy/sheer (B/S) ratio confirms that with a perfect 10 for all of SWOnt. Even the 10AM b/s ratio is showing between 7 and 10...so it should be soarable then?!

It's a little light wind for going big distance (which is what I have my eye on) so I think I'll stick local (O&R or Triangle).

See you out there.

I'm just so impatient....everytime I fly before the magic 2PM I get bit. :)

I was so itchin' to get some airtime and some XC that at 1:15 I couldn't resist anymore and took to the skies. I had two decent climbs and that was enough to sucker me into going on the course I chose - a 50KM triangle. I even set my flight computer for a 2PM start window (as if I was flying a comp) but I jumped the start anyways and headed North on course.
