Day 3

Today is Day Three and no task today. We went up to launch in hope that winds would be on the decrease. Unfortunately, it seemed to stay strong and the powers that be called it after about an hour and half on launch.

There is a Low pressure system to the north off the Britsh Columbia coast, and with a High to the south a strong westerly flow has set up. Tomorrow, Thursday looks to be a better day, but they are calling for an increase of clouds. The rest of the week looks OK but it is too early to tell right now with this Low just hanging there.

On day two we didn't fly as the winds were strong and increasing through the day as the cold front passed. Stay Tuned.....
