Report of only one PG flying on Friday. He described it as weak. There were small thermals with sharp edges. Highest altitude was about 4,000ft. TODAY…...lower with more wind velocity. Both soarcasts are quite a bit lower this morning. Both Van Nuys and the Burbank TAF’s are forecasting a blue afternoon but with the monsoon starting, I would expect more clouds to drift in from the SE. Winds aloft are SE between 10 and 12kts by 2pm. Max altitude 3,700ft.
