Peña Negra in the morning and Lastra in the afternoon

The low pressure to our West continues, and will stay there for a while.  Today winds in the SW around 15km&hr at take off levels going to around 30km&hr at 3000m.  Due to humidity Cu will build readily and congestus is likely to form and maybe storms in late afternoon.  Not a perfect scenario, but some possibility for XC flights.   Most likely from Lastra.  Wind at PN at 9am is over the back, but not too strong.  We will see how it develops to see if PN is a possibility.

What Happened.

A nice day with an hour and a half of excellent thermal soaring early on at PN, though then came through hard from the south.  Mick went over the pass to near Muñana.

around 6pm we all had a great flight from Lastra at its best.  Smooth and easy and bang on.   3 flew back to Piedrahita and a grand fly about for all!
