Disentis: A Wednesday with plenty of variety
As we wrote yesterday, it's almost impossible to make a precise weather forecast in the flat pressure distribution. And so it was: beautiful weather in the morning, everyone thought, why don't we just go up? Then, right on time at 10 a.m., within 15 minutes there was cloud cover, storm, thunder and rain. After 20 minutes the spook was over and the fine-meshed model showed quite calm weather for midday, early afternoon. So: let's go up.
But 5 minutes before most of us boarded the 11 o'clock gondola, the cancellation came: suddenly the forecast was for strong winds until around 2 o'clock. It came with good gusts on Caischavedra.
From 3 pm it was cloudy but calm with zero wind at the take-off site. Many took advantage of the calm for a hike & fly.
Now it's time for Thai curry :-)
