Report of launch winds ramping up to 20+ by 1pm on Saturday. Ridge lift provided altitudes of about 3,800ft. Cloud base dropped down to 4,000ft by 4pm. TODAY…...ho hum but at least a dry day before the wet weather. Both Van Nuys and Burbank TAF’s are forecasting scattered clouds at 3K and a broken deck at 6K. Blipspot is indicating a base at 2,800ft so launch could be obscured if the scattered clouds get thick enough. Winds aloft are SSE between 10 and 14kts by 1pm. Max altitude 4,200ft
