1200

1200

Section downwind from lastra

Increased instability in altitude (cool air in upper layers).  The instability up to cloud base also better, which may promote the wind at PN (wind over the back at 9am).  Climbs to near 3800, but  Cbs likely.  We will probably to directly to Lastra to ensure an early flight as we cannot wait for it to come on to PN if it has not done so by 11am.

What happened?

Not much.  An early trip to Lastra, but NW wind so back to PN just as the cumulus were getting to Congestus phase.  Myself and Joe flew, but got down quick due to the build up.  A fly down at the end of the day after the storms abated.
