World Championships, Day 8

The day dawned cloudy with showers, so we weren’t optimistic about flying. At the team leader briefing we were told to reconvene at 12 noon, and by then it looked worse, so we were very surprised when we were told to meet on Mt. Borah for a 1:30pm meeting. Oh well, get the gliders ready and up the mountain we went, in time to see a nice rain cell form and start shooting lightening out of it, to the SW of Mt. Borah. That put an end to any ideas of having a task, and back down the mountain we went. Tomorrow is not looking good, but Wed/Thurs/Fri are all looking good, so we may yet end this meet on a positive note!
