No Flying Sunday

Mario Lazaga explains why:
The weather for Sunday looks very bad for flying. Strong crosswinds up to 19MPH starting very early in the morning and staying all day, about 65% chance of rain and low ceilings, all while most pilots are still rusty early in the year.
The tow pilot and the instructor of the day also prefer to play it safe and have expressed doubts about Sunday.
So, we have to bow before mother nature once again, and declare Sunday a no-fly day.
Use your Sunday to read the G102Astir flight manual and study for the pre-solo written test.
The National Weather Service isn't any more upbeat:
Sunday: Occasional rain. High near 60. Breezy, with a southeast wind around 22 mph, with gusts as high as 34 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New rainfall amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.
