 It is shortly after briefing where racing tasks up to 330km were presented. First legs direct to the north but not so far away then back to south near danube river. Arrivals will be from east. Cummulus clouds have already appeared in the sky. Competitors are getting ready. First start planned to 12.00 am. Stay tuned :)

 Cold and humid air is flowing to our area from north-east bringing unstable airmass suitable for flying. We expect some rainshowers in the mountain areas in north part of Slovakia but good thermal conditions in flatland. More info at briefing.
