Default Daily Reports from the World Sailplane Grand Prix!

Today, the weather on the South Island is improving, with a dry
southerly flow of cooler air. Here on the southern coast we had a lot
of rain overnight, but I expect it was drier in Omarama in the rain
shadow of the mountains. High pressure is building and we are
expecting a run of a few nicer days that should bring better soaring
weather to the interior.

Here in Dunedin we had a nice little earthquake last night (4.2).
Just enough to shake the house and get the windows rattling. A little
reminder that New Zealand is seismically active.
