6/27 Craig's Where to Ride

Postby Craig Goudie » Mon Jun 27, 2011 9:30 am

There's not a lot of wind out there today(execpt for maybe a Lowe Effect at Pineview).
Otherwise, best bet is probably DC which is still supporting
a 30 degree temp differential from night to day. Without much other support look
for planable puffs up there starting around 2 PM in the 8/16M range. But........
hold on to your gear, because....

Tomorrow South winds kick up considerably for stronger conditions. DC looks like
early afternoon 6.5/12. Sulfur 6.5 early afternoon. Rush looks like mid afternoon 6.5/12.
Mona and Willard more like 7.5/14 late afternoon, and a slim chance for UL launches
in the gusty 7.5/14 range. And then.......

Weds looks like it could really honk with Grantsville AM in the 4.5 range, DC up before
noon and maybe 5.5/10, but degrading to strong gusts and lulls by late afternoon.
Jordanelle similar to DC but probably a little steadier.
Sulfur looking like 4M sail conditions PM. Willard and Mona looking 5/10Mish PM.
Rush looking like a real nuke fest with the smallest gear you have (3.2/trainer) PM.
UL launches will probably get into the 5.5/10 range PM also. And, be ready for a strong
spike of wind right around mid day that could get you down by another meter if you
have the tiny gear (and attitude) for it (could be some smoke).
