There is an acronym index at the bottom of the report for those not understanding some of the weather jargon. ;)

21 December 2024

Good morning all you super cool Wild2fly people! :) What a beautiful day of flying we had yesterday - again! Almost all the sites worked at one stage or another - the coast was super soarable all day long and so too were Serps and Sedge. This place is truly paradise on earth. :)) The guys in PV were not so lucky with yesterdays task cancelled. You can follow the action here... https://airtribune.com/2024-south-africa/blog__day_5 Today here on the GR it is looking like another sweet day of flying, even if there's a chance of rain. The CF that moved past is being nudged in by a gentle ridge form the SAH, so loads of low-level clouds around today. The maritime air is only around 6k in depth so not that much for producing loads of rain, I think. But this layer will start of in a southerly direction before even in the morning still go to the SE for the rest of the day. Most of the sites should work for a short while during a part of the morning but it is really the SE facing ones that will get thelions share of flying today. I see cloud base will vary from around 2000ft to some spots less than 500ft - over the ocean. Especially in the afternoon. For Map I think things can be soarable by 10/10:30 already and then blown out by 13:30. If we are lucky, it might hold a bit longer. The days snapshot shows things in a more positive perspective - perhaps that’s optimistic? But for sure the XC from Serps to Map should be on for the morning. :)) The M pilots should get to Buffs early already as it looks like it will blow strong there from 10/11:00 already. ;) And Gerrickes should be good for an hour or so also during the morning before blowing out here around 11:30. Bench up at 10. :)) Low tide today is at 13:58 so cool for flying along the coast. ;) And that’s about it for today. Have a great day everybody and don’t forget to take a moment to get closer to God, especially as we get closer to Christmas - that's what life is really all about. :))  (Isaiah 7:14, Micah 5:2, John 3:16, Rom 12:9-21, Gal 5:13-26)
