Moriarty Winds
This from a friend at the airport:
Winds at 0E0 right now at 240 degrees, 31 gusting to 37 with flying tumbleweeds, cats, dogs and coyotes......in haze and blowing dust. Bart is now being blown eastward back to his home in Kentucky against his will. He, however, will have to get past the tornadoes currently on the ground in central Oklahoma....If he intersects them it may speed up his "flight" east bound...

Tornado no problem just fly against the direction of rotation right? Which is negative ground speed btw.

Today's forecast is for 20-30 G 40. Ground handling is really the tough
part. "Mike the Strike" wrote in message ...

Winds are beginning to taper off. And it's a good thing with the contest
starting in about a week. "Mike the Strike" wrote in message ... The 29th of February is usually quite calm! Mike

Moriarty Winds
On my last flight, just a few days ago, winds at landing were about 40
degrees left at 19G29 making the crosswind runway useless. Fortunately our runway is about 75 ft wide and we have a very large turnout so, if you carry sufficient energy and you know how your brakes work, it's more exciting than scarey. It helped a bit, too, that my left water dump valve was stuck (ice, maybe) and that made keeping the left wing level against the wind pretty simple until I came to a stop.
