Canadian Nationals - Days 5 and 6

Sunday (day 5) was scrubbed at the pilots' meeting due to an approaching cold front and completely overcast sky with no chance of convective activity. 

Monday (day 6) was scrubbed around noon due to high winds.  the sky actually looks superb with nice cu and some streeting, but the wind is being measured as 33018G26KT by the Waterloo AWOS about 30 km south of York .

As I type this, the wind is howling and the RV is buffeting from the gusts.  Everyone is happy to be on the ground and not struggling in broken thermals.

Tuesday looks like it could be a good day., but the public forecasts for Waterloo and London are calling for "Wind north 30 km/h gusting to 50".
