Central Plateau 2010

New Zealand,   30 October 2010 – 6 November 2010

Day 1 - Sunday 31st, Cancelled

Again the weather conspires against us. All fault as usual lies with the weatherman but all is forgiven because "tommorow will be better". Again, a strong 15 to 20 kt easterly flow dominates. The lennies over the clubhouse looked great this morning but have disappeared now. Temperatures are a little cool.

 The weather patter is pretty much uchanged from yesterday, but with a band of rain over the Urewera and Kaimanawas which occasianaly pushes over us before retreating back over the Kaingaroa Forest. The task setters set a short Out & Return away from this weather but with cloudbase down at 4'500 have decided to cancel the day. 

Tommorow's forecast is for the strong winds to continue until tommorow afternoon. After this things are loking much better
