just heard on he radio emergency weather service @ 5:20 NWS spoted potential thunder storm far east gresham. aparently this came out of nowhere and may have severe damaging winds and 1/4" hail. Note was to get to a strong shleter with no windows.
I have no link yet... am driving in the car. figured it was worth pulling over to post. winds in hillsburrito are moderate to light and clear skies...

From 4:35 to 5:35 that was some amazingly steady wind.  Me happy. The 1" fins also helped.

Yeah, thanks for convincing me to pump up the 10 as you were leaving, Jim. From 5:35 on, well, that was a different story... 
And yes, there were flashes of lightning over on the Washington side, but everybody was pretty much plucked from their swim by then. Except for one guy who managed to fly all the way back with no wind and tangled lines from multiple inversions - you rock Buddy! |

We saw lightning hit the river at Stevenson last night. Shortly thereafter, I launched Kraemer for a solo session.   |
