I didn't post here yesterday because of the hype and noise about the rain coming out of the news all week. Waking up this morning in Sydney, it is not as wet as I expected, so some of us may be tempted to go for a flight.
The wind forecast (check blipmap and windity) doesn't have anything dangerous forecast at the current time, with conditions improving throughout the weekend. Rain and cloud wise, today is forecast to be wet this morning and then again later this afternoon, which I would expect to be related to the thunderstorms forecast by the BOM. Windity, (aerogram) has 0.2mm this morning and 0.3mm this afternoon, so probably better to give it a miss.
Tomorrow, again has light rain early, with low clod hanging around until lunch time when it clears. This corresponds to the change in wind (blipmap) so I would expect Sunday afternoon to be quite nice. The rain today and tonight will keep things subdued thermal wise, so it may be quite a pleasant ridge soaring opportunity.
Having said all that, remember Blackheath is wedged between two forecast zones. So in reality, and especially this weekend, we will have to be there and observe.
Fingers crossed.
