N going SW????

Forecasts seems puzzling with isobars giving more easterly winds and the computer models more W. Light W to our W in Bejar, E on the plateau behind Peña Negra and S in Avila. Thermal strenght supposedly weak.
yesterday the day turned out far better than forecast with good climbs to above 2300m, allowing the hero of the day, Alberto to make an out and return to near the Quarry and back.

Certainly complicating tomorrow, though still looks feasable for flying.

First trip up hill at 10.30am
Best guess is that we will find winds NNW around Peña Negra and more NE towards Pass. A route similar to Albertos or if the N dominates then a trip towards Barco
