It's looking like a perfect prefrontal day.
Should be good at 'A' Mountain on Sat. Possibly both for HG and PG.

The prediction I see is for 10 to 15 a little light for the A.
What velocities are you seeing?

Actually, I couldn't secure a hall pass for this weekend, so it may not matter to me.

But what I was thinking was that just because they're calling for 10-15, three days in advance, doesn't mean it's not gonna be 15-20 or more on Sat. Or, potential bag wing conditions.

Ilker,
you will need to sign a wavier and get it to me before 4pm today also you have to join SAHGA. We have temporary memberships available.
The A is hardly worth driving from Phoenix when you guys have Shaw Butte and south Mt.
I am happy to work with you to get you on the list and a wavier in place. I need some lead time thou. The city requires I send in the wavier before I issue the card.
The wavier is available on the web site.

Miller Sat.

Miller will be strong for Hg, wire crew needed, blown out for PG, 90% sure.

Today was predicted 5 to 15mph, it is blowing 18 to 25 at the U of A.
