Anyone thinking about Miller tomorrow?

Post by jlowery » Fri Sep 17, 2004 11:24 am

It's looking breezy but doable. ADDS says < 10 SSE at 6000' but another source says 10+ 11 and 2. Weather Underground for Fort Huachuca says 5 east at 8 AM, increasing to 10 south at 2 PM and 15 wsw at 5 PM.

It looks iffy but could be real good. I think wire crew will be required.

I'd like to go out, Eric's leaning against, at least for his tandem. Anyone else?

BTW Weather underground thinks Sunday might be one of them "A" mountain days.

I'm only available on Sunday. Looks like it will be too south to southwest for Miller. Might be a Whetstones day- or, like you mentioned, I hope A mtn will be flyable. It could be on the edge of south to southwest. No fun landing in the LZ in a rotor.

In south west you land out front at the A.

Hurricane flying. Or not.

It was raining cats and dogs when the alarm woke me this morning, so no flying today. The fence needed work anyway.

Still watching for the "A" tomorrow, Weather Underground says south 15 by 2 PM. But 80% chance of rain is prediected, so it might be too damp.
