Forecast for the week

Don’t write Wednesday off! There is, in essence a cold front going through in the morning, so it’s likely that you will wake up to rain and not bother going down the club. However, cold fronts are good news for glider pilots in that they provide unstable air behind them. It might be a bit showery and blustery as the front goes through, but a ridge of high pressure builds after it, so there may well be some nice afternoon thermals with wind dying down to be had.

The weekend looks nice and bright at the moment, some lingering fronts on Saturday, but I think it’ll be soarable – they are decaying on the charts. Sunday looks bright as well, but I can’t be utterly sure at this range.

See you at the club!
