Fwd: Cold but Plenty of Thermals

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: ZASoars
Wouldn't it be great if we could be up there right now ? And for that
matter yesterday looked good too.
I've just been watching a couple of crows hasseling a Red Tail Hawk
who was trying to thermal above my tree tops . Yesterday as I drove
across the Indiana country side I saw no less than 5 hawks of various
types happily thermalling in the bright sunshine under wisps of cu. My
guess was that there was good lift to 300agl or better .
Seems to me this kind of January weather must be the kind that Hawks
really enjoy .
Surely this is a sign of good times to come . CU at the field soon !
