Conditions

(Graphic: wetter3 )
The high-licking from the Atlantic Ocean from approaching the British Isles. The clouds from dry, there is much sunshine. The wind from NE to East remains rather weak in the deeper regions increases with the amount but quickly to something. Whether on exposed eastern slopes around the Eifel as Boppard, Zeltingen or Hönningen now the slow moving cold air or ground level but the wind at the launch site, interspersed is difficult to predict. With some luck, perfect conditions prevail, with some bad luck it's enough to two days, only to slip. Saturday are the chances of soarbaren wind a little higher. The low inversion can provide surprising jet effects. Perhaps the day is nothing in Boppard, until suddenly the wind by 16 clock starts ...

Is the most visible statement of the Vorseils. With perfect alignment, this sheet is exactly on the axis of the screen to the winch. Makes the rope bends to the left or right, it is to have put himself in that direction, until this deflection disappears.
