waraton Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Is there a free service which forecasts thermal activity (times and heights). I have had a boy look and have drawn a blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueadventures Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Talk to the gliding clubs, say Lake Keepit and Narromine. Used some nice informative sites at cross country weeks out of Kingaroy years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graham brown Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 GFA members get free access to sky sight. Dr Jack used to be used too, not sure if it’s still available. Windy has temp traces too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, not sure where to find traces on Windy but found what I was looking for here... http://ausrasp.com/ no login, no cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham brown Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Yeah that’s good. On windy select temperature, then hold you finger on the point of interest. A menu comes up with sounding as an option. Select that. The height of the thermals can be determined by the ground temperature. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Koreelah Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Crickey! That sounding graph is a bottler! With all this technology available, how can we stuff it up? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
