A 3 hour MAT with two mandatory TP's was called. CD wanted everyone
to get going early as winds were forecast to be 20-30+ on the ground
after noon.

At 11:30 the official practice day was called off due to the strength
of the wind and gusts, 25-30+, and the direction, 90 degree cross.
The 03/210 runway has been deemed unusable for Takeoffs due to debris,
loose rocks and gravel. The organizers are working with the city to
get it cleaned up.

Free flying is being allowed if a pilot and tow pilot is comfortable
with the conditions.

Monday is looking similar with a weather pattern change due for
Tuesday.
