RASP  http://rasp.stratus.org.uk/index.php/rasp-by-turn-point forecasts the height of the critical (225 fpm (1ms)) updraft velocity reaching 2,500ft………

.…with an expected maximum updraft velocity of c400fpm at 1400. http://rasp.stratus.org.uk/index.php/rasptable-desktop

Light and variable wind all day.

..and, given the wind speed and direction, there is a likelyhood of Wave setting up to the South East.

Conditions are good for those who might be planning to fly their 300km cross country tomorrow.
