Another local soaring day

Yesterday's conditions were again weak with a high point of 2100 feet above the ground - I only managed to stay in the air for another short flight. Thermalling at 300 feet over the Bojnice castle (the castle is in the background of the photo), in company with a stork, was the highlight of the flight. The tourists watching from the ground appreciated it too.

Today looks to be much the same but with more over-development so I will probably not fly. It is forecast to be hotter in the next few days and the ground should dry out giving higher cloud base.
