Mount Leinster - 28-29th November
joe:
Yep! Still alive. Just a little road weary. Saltlake city Utah today. Look forward to seeing how you got on. Hope the weather holds for tomorrow. It's tough at the top keith but there's a great view!
Happy Days:
:lol: :lol: Very good Joe. I thought Salt Lake City was full of morons,……..sorry, that should read Mormons. :oops:
Didn’t think they’d allow drunken lecherous guys like you in there. :lol:
Shame about the wind, or lack of it at Big L. while I was there. Peter seems to have a knack for sniffing out the lift. What was that you said Peter?…“Build ‘em light!” :D
Karl, You must return when the wind is blowing……….. Your Excel will fly for hours doing all the acrobatics you can think of. :D (And some that you can’t! :oops: )
A little off topic but someone was asking today what forecasters I use…..only the free ones! is the answer I think I gave. :wink: Here are a couple, apart from the usual Met Eireann and Wind Guru.
www.xcweather.co.uk click on a location to see a more detailed forecast
www.accuweather.co.uk type in the name of the town you want to know the forecast for.
I’ve never found any of them to be consistently more accurate than the others, it’s really a case of taking a mean average of them all. :roll:
Tomorrow is not looking hopeful for the Big L. Looks like rain all day, boo hoo! :cry:
I might pop up there again on Monday. Not forecast to be so windy as tomorrow, but beggars can’t be choosers, ..right? :!:

Hi Keith,
Have you tried www.metcheck.com or www.windguru.cz I use both and metcheck seems to be reasonably accurate on weather, but not always on timing, weather coming in faster or slower than they predict.
At the end of the day weather forecasting is a best guess :?: :?: :?:
Hi Joe,
Pity you couldn't have timed the tour to coincide with Soar Utah.

I'm a sober chivalrous gentleman these days. Perhaps it is your own youth you are thinking of!! :wink:
Yes it is the heart of Mormon country.
Bill our booking agent seem to have no regard for slope soaring events when booking our tours. Would be kinda difficult thought. We arrived at 11 a.m. and we will roll out about 1 a.m. Not a lot of time for flying. Got to fit a show in there somewhere too!
Had two shows in L.A. Was planning a trip to PT Fermon on the morning of the second but we had to do some press stuff so it didn't work out! :!:
Looking forward to getting back to "Keith's" slope :?: :? :wink:

Just to to confuse things even more. www.theyr.tv My preferred weather site says the rain will stay close to the east coast tomorrow and not reach Mt Leinster until 11/12 pm. You might even get some flying in after that too as the heavier cloud and rain will be closer the coast!
I hope I'm right. Good luck!!
