In soaring, we are at the mercy of the weather. The last 10 weekends at Minden were all good to excellent. (Last Wednesday the smoke was very bad but it abated on the weekend. I second your hope for a miracle end to the fires.)

What large scale weather conditions made Minden so good over that period of time? Was it consistently good or did it cycle? Were those conditions predicted by SkySight or other soaring weather applications?
