Extreme Heat Warning July 10!

Posted: July 7, 2021 | Author: | Filed under: Launch Announcements | Comments Off on Extreme Heat Warning July 10!

Be sure to bring plenty of water Saturday. The National Weather Service has issued an extreme heat warning for the high desert, including Lucerne Valley, extending until Monday evening. Be sure to bring shade!
The predicted high is 105 degrees, 5 degrees above the record for July 10. The low temperature Saturday morning is expected to be 78 degrees, with triple digits in the morning.
Humidity is expected to be in single digits on the lakebed, with extreme UV levels.
The wind prediction is 8AM to 10AM shows 6 to 9 mph sustained with gusts 14 to 17 mph.

We will try to start launching at 7AM (volunteers for set up will help this) and will probably wrap up early due to heat.
