I know it's a bit early to predict...

Think Monday the 4th August could be an epic day.

Check it out for yourselves... http://rasp.inn.leedsmet.ac.uk/RASPtable.html

Certainly by the standards we've had so far this year.

Get dodging and dealing, you want the day off!

This link is most impressive - if only I could understand all the terms.
Just what is: Bouyancy/Shear Ratio? BL? Sfc? .........

Whatever, I like the look of the pastel colours predicted for Monday so I'll take your word for it and clear my diary.

Well I am away doing other things next week and not able to fly

So it should be an epic day

For what it is worth I am not that convinced. When I looked yesterday i was but not today .
Par for the course

Direction is good, lapse rate is good but me thinks the dew point will be a bit high:

The thermally predictor thinky presumably shows a reading for air whether it is saturated or dry.
