Another beautiful morning for a balloon ride. It was so nice that 3 other ballooners joined us up flying this morning. Kind of a rarity this season having that many flyers up together. Flew a very nice couple from the Utica area that drove over early this AM just to go flying with us.

As far as our flying weather for the rest of the week, tonight is a maybe depending on what a trough does to us as it passes through this afternoon. It appears that we still have our upper air low still hanging around above the Great Lakes in Ontario, spinning off disturbances periodically that like to rotate through our area during the afternoons. Friday morning should be good flying, then another one of those disturbances are advertised to spin-off the low and pass through in the afternoon. We have seen this weather pattern almost daily since June, with short-lived breaks in the weather. Saturday looks to be the best day of the weekend before a warm front moves into the area to bring greater chances of rain and storms. That type of weather looks to continue into the coming week, hotter and more humid post warm front passage than we currently are.
