Woodstock/Pulpit for Sunday afternoon 4/1

Post by silverwings »

The forecast looks pretty good for Woodstock during the afternoon with WNW winds, good lift, and good velocity. I am interested for HG, anyone else?

Depends on what the hourly says for Hagerstown for Sunday by tomorrow night. Seriously considering the Pulpit very early on Sunday. Bacil

The hourly has it strong at the Pulpit in the AM and of course stronger in the afternoon. Looking to launch early before the midday throttleup. SOP for the Pulpit this time of year. Bacil

It's still early but the forecast velocity for Woodstock has reduced so we may have to go to the Pulpit. Will decide in the morning but where ever I go my ETA wont be till early afternoon.

Pulpit is looking like a better choice (for HG) as of this evening for Sunday. Who is serious about coming? Post your thoughts/evaluation.
