NOAA - READY Forecasts
The following forecasts are for the entire (or remaining) event and for each flight. They will be updated about two (2) hours before the briefing time for each flight period. I (GAL) intend to keep the current/next flight period and the one after that as up-to-date as possible. Subsequent flight periods will be updated as time allows.
Forecasts with Green Buttons are still being updated.
Forecasts with Orange Buttons are no longer being updated (because their periods have elapsed).
NOTE: Your web browser may cache files such that you do not see the most up-to-date forecast. If in doubt, delete cached images and files to force your web browser to update forecasts.
