There is an acronym index at the bottom of the report for those not understanding some of the weather jargon. ;)
17 April 2024
Good morning all you super cool Wild2Fly people! :)) A tough but satisfying day here at PV - great going to Calen for scratching his way to Kardoesie from Pampoenfontein not once getting above 1100m. And Henk who managed to get to Bumpy peak on his first XC attempt. Jan flew his new glider for the first time and Michail also tried but bombed out a few K's down the range. I heard the students had foefies at Sedge which was the order of the day in Wilderness. Ai.
Today is not looking any better. A strong inversion with some warm temps around for this time of the year along the GR coastline. Zero lift index at Sedge once again - it is looking even lighter than yesterday - some offshore winds for the morning and later on a light onshore flow but it remains very inverted. And tomorrow more SE but with that strong inversion still hanging around. Ai. Winter patience... lol ;) To the north the DuToits farm is a maybe - it is looking a bit on the strong side to me and then goes NW in the afternoon while moderating a bit. There should be some sweet super high Q's forming above just before the southerly pushes through (12k!?) so if you are up there better watch airspace! Hehe... ;) lol. Lekker! Whatever you get up to enjoy and of course, don’t forget to take the chance and get closer to God. That's what life is really all about. :)) (John 3:16, Gal 5:13-26) Windy and rainy blessings to you all!
