Hello,

Thank you to those who replied about my subscribe questions. In the end
Lex added me to the list.

I'm looking for articles about determining or forecasting good soaring
weather. I'm a beginning glider pilot (and experienced power) but I have
a number of 30min+ flights under my belt.

I live in a city and can't verify that there are good thermal conditions
based on hawks (there aren't any), wind shifts (tall buildings), etc.
How can one tell that there is an inversion? Are certain air pressure
trends and day/night temperature or humidity patterns indicative of an
inversion?

I would like to be able with fair certainty to determine if sufficient
soaring conditions exist before driving out of the city. I'm in Chicago
BTW.

Thanks,

Michal
