That's indeed what I got today. I think I hit marginal wave once or
twice but it was so patchy and the winds were too southerly so I
couldn't keep it long enough to get well above the clouds and into
consistent laminar wave. Ridges were working nicely though later in the
afternoon. I'm tied down for the night, so I'll give it a go tomorrow.

SkySight is showing weak wave for Saturday and expect some rotor and broken thermals. I think it the wave will be disorganized.
Sunday the winds calm down but a mediocre blue day expected.
Fly Safe, Brian

So tomorrow my guess is we should get weak to moderate wave, I'm
seeing 30-35 knot SW winds at 18k throughout the entire region.
Not sure if it'll blue or lenny wave. The convective lift will
only go to the low teens in our area, so I don't think the
convection will interfere much with the wave, especially early.
Some chance of rain just W of us early around noon. The winds will
remain throughout the day so with a late landing, a nice long
distance flight is a real possibility.
Sunday looks like a weak thermal day. Probably blue, again lift
going into the low teens. 15 knots or so of SW winds aloft, enough
to make the thermals harder to work but most likely not enough for
wave.
I plan on giving it a go both days as usual.
Happy Soaring,

It looks like we have a front moving through. The RASP and NAM
show high southwest winds in the boundary layer and relatively
low max attainable altitudes.
There is indication from the RASP 500 mb vertical velocity that
there could be wave. What are you all seeing and who is planning
to fly this weekend?
