Still under the influence of the potent Azores bigh pressure but with a head low  forming in the SE of the Peninsula.  Today an increase in the wind strength from the SW.  Light S wind at Peña Negra at 8.30am.  Good probability that it will come onto the hill, though at take of level the forecast wind is c 15 to 20km hr and at 3000m 30 to 40km/hr.

An shallow  inversion around 2600m at 12 mid day, though less marked than yesterday.  Trigger temperature at midday c30ºC.  Possible climbs to near 3800m later in the day.   The winds will be a little more NW at Avila,  but this, if the forecast is correct is a Open distance or a defined task along an axis: going out and with no fiddly turn points due to wind strength and poor base and climbs early on.
