Good afternoon. It’s probably early but next Saturday 8-10 is looking promising. Sky Sight is forecasting lift at 3.5 knots to 4800 agl. Cu’s with bases at 6000 msl. All this starts at noon and lasts until 5 to 5:30. Winds are NNW at 9 to 10 knots and the high temperature is going to be a comfortable 72 degrees. I’ll keep an eye on the weather and update as needed but at this time I’m planning on coming out and flying. Let’s plan on having an operation and take advantage of this weather if the forecast holds. It’s August and who knows how many good days we’ll have in the rest of this season. John Lincoln

Tuesday Update for Sat 8/10. Things have changed and not for the better. Lift is down to 3.1 knots with top of lift at 4000 agl. The cu’s are still there but bases will be lower early but rising as the day progresses. Bases at 4:30 are forecast to be 5750 msl. High temp is still about the same but one degree cooler. Wind is now WNW at 10 to 11 knots. I’m still planning to fly though. John Lincoln

Surface winds are up to 12 knots out of the west but top of lift winds are down to 18 to 21 knots. Cu’s forecast for the entire day. One more report tomorrow. John Lincoln
