”Big clouds are popping up these days (see photo from today’s flight)”





Two days ago there were heavy showers here and around. But yesterday and today evening I had two nice flights. Both days I was checking out where there are rubber trees around here. Due to an aborted launch yesterday I started late and landed when the sun was setting. Today the wind was better, 2-3 m a second, and I used only a few meters of runway. The thermals were fairly strong in many places, and the paraglider was moving all the time, even at 1.100 meters.

The big clouds have developed into thunderstorms. Around 8 PM the night is warm and mellow. Lightnings are flashing all the time, but they are far, far away.
