Sunday didn't look so good with mostly cloudy skies and winds gusting over 20kts.  All pilots reported that it was good with abundant lift.  Best altitude was in the early afternoon at 4,400ft just below cloud base.  Later it dropped down to 4k. TODAY…..NE on launch and aloft all day. Velocity starts to drop off after 3pm but no turn around. Blip altitude is 9,800ft and the rasp is saying 7,500ft.
