SW wind lightening and going more West at end of day.

A rather brisk SW wind going more W as the day goes on.  Potentially an acceptable open XC day but potentially on the strong side for us.  Winds are likely to come onto PN, but once again problematic from that site till later in the thermal day.

Inversion around 2100m at midday, rising to 2600 by 1500 hrs capped further up at 3800m.

If the winds are as predicted then we will have nearly 30km/hr at take of level so must wait till the end of the day when the winds are forecast to drop  and move more to the NW.  However, the wind forecast was way off yesterday, so we will need to have a look earlier on.
