As predicted, a front from the north is meeting the sea-breeze from


the south (remnants of the gulf downgraded-hurricaine most likely).


This pinched the task area to about half the size as last week. We'll


see, but seems like a good call so far.


Gust front is starting to form; looks like


it will hit Uvalde around 5:45http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?product=N0R&rid=DFX&loop=yes


Hmmmm...


The front from the north (over my house) was slowed by the gulf


spawned front. In Open Class; Dick Butler made it home already, at


least according to Spot tracking. One track has Tabery landing at


Uvalde, the other has him out on course 40miles away. In 18m; Gary


Ittner landed home, Bill Elliott still out. *In 15m John Seaborn was


near the head of the pack when he got back. What a comeback he has


made since having a no-start one day. Dave Leonard is just a few miles


from the finish. Good job by all.


By the way, a rep from the SSA said she expects that the WGC will try


to have more frequent updates starting tonight/tomorrow.

WE has been scored so he must've made it back. Glad to hear that DB & SS made it, they weren't on Ritz's list on SoaringCafe and the liveatc.net feed was down (perfect timing!). Looks like the gust front has passed Uvalde now, good time to already be on the ground.


Where are the daily scores now? *My previous link no longer works.- Hide quoted text -
