Probable storms for day 1 of the fiesta del la Virgen de La Vega

1200

1500

Downwind section from PN

Upper level troughs over the peninsula.  Once again light winds (should come onto PN) and base around 12000ft.  Early build up of Congestus clouds and probably showers with some storm activity.  Not a brilliant day for paragliding. Hopefully we can be at launch and get off before significant build up if the wind comes on early.

What Happened?

Storm development very early starting at Pass and growing across the main ridge.  A fly down for me, but certainly not worth the risk.   The others were sensible and packed and came down in the van.

Finally a bit of rain though which is the upside.
