I am not disputing the facts, I am disputing the explanation.


OK, Its time for my Minden pond theory. We have a small pond about 5 miles

east
of the airport that consistently produces thermals. JJ's explanation;

Heated
air that is slowely moving over the ground by the wind, suddenly comes to

the
cooler pond edge. This cool edge of the pond acts as a trigger that forces

the
heated air to break loose and start rising and that's why thermals can be

found
at the edge of small ponds.
