The National Weather Service says the weather today should be “Mostly Sunny—But…” there’s a 50% chance of showers and thunderstorm during the period of SoAR’s launch from Mill Springs Academy on Saturday from 9 AM – 2 PM. Low rainfall amount predictions say that any such rain will be highly scattered. Temperatures should be around 80 with the relative humidity rising from 70% to nearly 100%. Winds will be west-northwest from 5-8 mph.

Mill Springs is our low-power field, suitable for rockets that fly no more than 1000 feet or so. We recommend a maximum of “D” impulse, but experienced rocketeers can and have flown big rockets with up to “G” power on this field. You never know!

As always, the public is welcome to watch or join in.
