Pennine lee wave tomorrow?
Hi, All,
Looks like a lee wave effect gale tomorrow. Met O warning out anyway. Regular info. here for Copley:- http://www.weatherlink.com/user/copl...mary&headers=1 The severest gales can sometimes develop further east, lets hope so, don't like really strong ones! Best wishes, Ken Copley, nr Barnard Castle, Teesdale http://www.kencook.magix.net |

Best wishes, Ken Copley, nr Barnard Castle, Teesdale http://www.kencook.magix.net Yes, a marked inversion looks like developing at around 3500 FT, with forecast strength in free air of 70 knots at that height later in the day, which will lead to acceleration over the Pennines and also trapped waves. There are likely to be some very powerful lee gusts in the NE, as per the Met Office warning. -- Andy http://www.romansleighweather.co.uk/ |

Like to take my K8 glider up there. Get someone to give me a tug up to the required height and away I'd go. Got my gliding wings when in the ATC as a young lad. Sedbergh and Kirby cadet gliders. Those were the days. So I'd know what I was doing. Well maybe. :-) Len Wood Wembury ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

I have no idea how a glider can tow another glider, never mind climb to that height. Someone with a long rope, jumping out of a control tower.. How would that work, how many pulley blocks would that require, my grasp of mechanical advantage is ....errrm ...not. |
