Weather status & forecast updates
UPDATE:2012/05/17
The event has been given a "GO" after weather check! See you Saturday!
UPDATE:2012/05/16
Having changed very little since the last report posted on Monday, it looks like this consistent forecast is calling for an excellent rocketry weekend all-around.
The only change worthy of note so far is the fact that Saturday night could warm up significantly, followed by a hot Sunday mid-day and afternoon. Given the expected added sunshine on Sunday it is recommended to bring out the suntan lotion, sun shades and the water jug! The middle of a field can get even hotter than posted temperatures and getting quick shade isn't always obvious. Latest information says we should expect a max of 26C on Sunday afternoon.
The wind should average 10km/h all weekend. Originally it seemed Saturday would have the edge with a little less wind than Sunday, but as of now forecasts call for a somewhat even progression of wind on both days. Those who want to launch more than once or twice will have plenty of time to prepare, having both full days to work.
The cloud cover should be more significant on Saturday with a somewhat clear sky on Sunday. Hopefully those Saturday clouds don't mess with our ceiling - highly unlikely given we don't have that high a ceiling to begin with.
At this point the odds are 85-90% favorable for a rocket launch event and the weather status is green.
Final review and a final decision on Thursday, at which point the official "GO" or "NO-GO" should be given .

Location information & directions
Full Google Map: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=&daddr=46.006799,-72.731209&hl=en&geocode=&mra=mift&mrsp=1&sz=14&sll=46.00662,-72.730608&sspn=0.025039,0.081797&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=14
The first step is to reach autoroute 20 on the south shore of Montreal. For local residents, this is pretty easy. If you don't know how, just check a Quebec map!
Take autoroute 20 East towards Drummonville. Take Exit 175 and take the 143 north.
On the 143 (north), go through the village of St-Bonaventure (there are two consecutive right angle turns in the village itself).
- Turn right on the "2e Rang"
- Roll on the "2e Rang" for 0.8km
- Turn Left on the "10e Rang"
- Roll 4.4km on the "10e Rang"
The launch site is on your left (western side of the road - a dirt road to be exact). Look for a sign that shows "TRIPOLI-QUEBEC FUSEES" including orange cones and follow the instructions on the placcard.
If you see an airplane hangar, you're too far. Turn back and roll for about 200 meters.
