4000m and West. High Potential XC day.

Potentially a very good xc day with good thermal quality and maybe climbs to 4000m and for sure over 3000m.  An occluded front to our south moving away eastwards.  There is likely to be some build up of cu and we must keep an eye on them, though the largest formations will occur  in the convergence which is likely to be well to our south if we look at the Hirlam diagrams.  A more NE component will make it a struggle to get to Segovia after Avila.  Also we must bear in mind the climbs may go 1000m above the airspace limit after Avila which may be frustrating.
