No flying Saturday [9/13/08]

CISS will not be flying today due to weather. The forecast for Alexandria is “Hazardous Weather Outlook” with 60% chance of rain and thunderstorms. The Fort Wayne wx is “Hazardous Weather Outlook” plus a “Tornado Watch” and 90% chance of rain all day. The metar forecast is for ceilings at 2000’ agl all morning, lifting to 3000’ after 1pm. But by then, sfc winds will be gusting to 22 kts. Visibility and ceilings in Indy should be a little better, but at both Indy and Fort Wayne, forecast winds at 3000’ agl will be 30 kts or greater all day.

Gasoline prices are spiking too, with some stations possibly running out. So it looks like today is a good time to catch up on that honeydo list and get some frequent flyer passes for the better days to come. Don Taylor, Crew Chief filling in for Darren.
