Soaring conditions around the USA this season so far

Here in south east Texas we have had a lot of rain and not all that great soaring conditions. El Nino is setting up and getting stronger and this gives us wetter weather. Good for the farmers and the lake is full, but soaring not so great.

Last week was pretty good in Kansas even with east winds which are usually bad news.

WI has had an excellent spring. Well anything is better than last year :-) A few weeks ago we had three straight days of good flying with bases of 9000'+ MSL on one day. this is practically unheard of here in the soggy Midwest where anything above 4kAGL is a great XC day ;-)
