Groundhog Day?

The decision to call the day off yesterday was clearly correct. It started raining as we were derigging and although there was the odd patch of sun during the afternoon it was not soarable with cloud bases well below the ridge tops.
The forecast for today is not very promising. There may be a small flyable window later this afternoon.
We spent some of yesterday looking at the traces from previous days. On day 2 Pete got about 100pts less than the winner with an average climb of 1.6kts. Somewhat different from Australia.
