Wednesday, June 6th. Winds, rain and cells moving thur in the am
hours. 50 kts at 2000 agl, and high wind warnings this afternoon gave
the CD enough information to call it a day at the pilots meeting.
Thursday is the last day, and we have 3 contests "in", so need
something for tomorrow.
Some are packing up now. Others are sticking around. All the Open
Class so far are still here, some of the 18 M crowd has left.
Yesterday, Wednesday, the 3rd day had several low finishers. Seems
like the guy taking pictures really attracted some of the flock,
resulting in some great photos, but at a cost of some points. We are
now using a finish line since the regionals are over, with a 50 agl
passing height.

Thermal tight, Soar high, Fly safe. # 711 reporting.

thanks tom. im crossing my fingers for you tomorrow. blipmaps looked
ok last night but there was a lot of variablility. probably going to
depend on how fast this cold front blows through. what was the
soaring conditions like yesterday? I was sitting at my desk all day
drooling over the satellite picture, METAR reports and soundings.
some folks flew in Ames, IA down I35 from you and reported weak lift
to about 6000 MSL.
