After the cancelled day yesterday, people did all sorts of activities: some went swimming in the beautiful lakes in the area, others went for bike rides, hikes or kayaking tours.
Of course, some others just slept a lot!!!
The sun was shining in the afternoon, maybe it would've been possible to fly a short task because the predicted thunderstorms did not show up; pilots could've use a rest day anyway. Hopefully they are all ready for some nice flying today.
Conditions will be weaker than the previous days with top of lift at 1900mts around 2pm. Wind on surface 17km/h from the S, 19km/ S-SE on take off and around 2000mts 15km/h S again. Cloud cover: 10% and thermals approx. 3.0-3.6 m/s.
Towards 5pm, cloudbase will have raised up to 2300mts and the winds on surface (20km/h S) and on take off level (22km/h S-SE) will have increased a little, but up at cloudbase it will still be the same. Cloud cover will be 20% and thermals will be weaker around 3.0-3.4 m/s and in certain areas even drop to 2.0 m/s.
The task will probably be around this valley with a later crossing to the Vilamitjana goal area.
In the afternoon update you will get more precise details about it!
Morning pictures: Some Staff members having breakfast at the "Camping Vall d'Ager" (where we also have the HQ) getting energy to do their job today. The town of Ager seen from the window of the scoring room and the take off ridge.
