There is an acronym index at the bottom of the report for those not understanding some of the weather jargon. ;)
24 April 2025
Good morning all you amazing Wild2fly people! :)) So yesterday was a tough day with only a few pilots getting some airtime. Map for the good, CP for the bad and Sedge for the ugly. lol ;) It was nothing as forecasted but the guys took what was delivered! :)) In the eastern and central parts of the country today a yellow level 4 warning for flooding. (See rain map below) Some heavy CB activity up there - we are very lucky to be living on the GR guys. ;) Back on the GR we once again have very different stuff compared to yesterday, with loads of moisture around from the IOH. Winds in the light SSE department according to the forecasts. A bit of a tough break for the SIV guys - looks like the low base might curb their tows over SV lake for some time during the morning, maybe a session form lunchtime onwards. For the rest of us I think Sedge probably the best bet with the lightish SSE winds should make it soarable there for much of the day. Climbs to around 1000ft - maybe more int he good bits. Light foefies at Map and maybe some light wind scratching along the coast, I think. Perhaps a bit more if we are lucky. Low tide this morning at 7 and HT at around 13:17. Sunrise was at 6:59 and sunset at 17:57. Daylight time 10hrs 57min. The next few days all seem to light wind stuff so Sedge probably the place to be. Lekker! ;) Reminder to get your comp gear ready - the Barberton champs are around the corner - a great winter reprieve for flying for the pilots from the WC. ;) The SIV over SW kicks off today - look up there for some aerial action! :)) Have a lekker day everybody and as usual, don’t forget to take a moment and reflect on God. That’s really what life is all about. (Matt 28:6. Luke 19:28-24. Rom 10:9).
