Wharton Wed Nov 18

Posted on FB from Robin:
November continues surreal. Decent soaring conditions forecast for at least the next 4-5 days... I guess its a 2020 thing where nothing is unusual anymore. This current cool, dry land-derived airmass will be with us through at least Wednesday and then gradually be replaced by more humid gulf-derived air later in the week. Today and tomorrow have forecast highs in the high seventies, giving healthy 30+ deg contrast with the early morning lows. Winds are light-mod NE today, swinging more Easterly and finally SE 10-14mph at TOL by end of Wednesday. Lift forecast to be 300-400 fpm Wednesday. TOL is forecast to be >4,000ft in the afternoon. Forecast doesn't have clouds till Thursday but I think there may be at least wispies based on wind direction.
I am considering going out tomorrow as I think it may be the best day for lift. Anyone else interested ?
