Weather Criteria: Since this is a winter launch we like to hold the event on a day where temperatures/wind chill will be tolerable. If the temperature forecast the day before is less than -10 deg C
in the morning we will cancel and go to the next alternate date (see above). Also, if the
sustained winds are going to be close to
20km/h or greater we will also postpone the launch. Please check this web site the evening before the launch to verify we are a go for launch.
