Updated Monday, June 8. Temperatures as slightly lower and slightly milder
winds.

The normal wind pattern this time of year is calming around dawn, fairly
calm in the early mornings, and then picking up in afternoon, evening, and
into the night. If you have a high altitude or complex flight, try to
launch as early as the range opens!

We should have a very clear and sunny sky, with a lot of direct
ultraviolet. Hats, long sleeves and long pants, with sunscreen on any
exposed skin will be very important.
Sunscreen is a definite requirement! Dehydration will be a significant
potential hazard, so bring and drink plenty of water and sports drinks.
Caffeine and carbonation can accelerate dehydration and are not
recommended, unless you absolutely need the caffeine to prevent withdrawals
and act human. Then the minimum required dosage is okay.

Thursday, June 11 (for set up): High of 90° F, Humidity 37%, UV 10 out of
10, Normal wind patterns, afternoon West at 10 to 15 mph
Thursday Night: Low of 63°, overnight west winds at 10 to 15 mph

Friday, June 12: High of 94°F 33% humidity, UV 10 out of 10, Normal wind
patterns, afternoon West at 10 to 15 mph
Friday Night:Low of 65°, overnight WSW winds at 10 to 20 mph

Saturday, June 13: High of 97°F 30% humidity, UV 10 out of 10, Normal wind
patterns, afternoon WSW at 10 to 15 mph
Saturday Night:Low of 66°, overnight WSW winds at 10 to 15 mph
