Dear fellow soaring geeks and nerds,
I'm going to try to run a Dr. Jack "RASP" soaring forecast for Uvalde
during the Pre-Worlds.
No guarantees, but a successful run was done last night for Aug 3, 4,
and 5. It is set up for
a 2.6KM grid resolution.
If all continues to go well, I will try to make it available at this

I have also added Alex's Uvlade RASP forecast to my very simple iPhone 
RASP viewer that makes these forecast sites easier to look at on an 
iPhone (but does not cache forecasts for offline/in-flight use).
Go here on your iPhone http://www.darryl-ramm.com/iRASP
(This will also work on iPod Touch, iPad and likely many other non-IE 
browsers-but all I care about supporting are iOS devices. This link 
won't work on IE browsers, and yes that is an IQ test)
Select "Uvalde, TX" from the locations pull down. Select the forecast 
times in the pull downs. The rest should be self explanatory, play 
around and see. Please email problems specific to the the iRASP wrapper 
to me.
Thanks so much to Alex for running these RASP forecasts for the Uvalde 
contestants.
Have a great contest, fly safely.
