I had to use a fair bit of my rudder to combat the winds on rotation, you must’ve suffered in the much smaller plane

It might be a mix of crosswinds and tailwinds at SFO…not completely sure. The winds reached 143 knots on my way to KLGB this morning.

There’s most likely crosswinds, that’s how it’s been at SFO every time I visited SFO since new years

Yeah, California is being pummeled by storm after storm after storm…

@AIDAN101 would it be okay to share 2 of my events here?

cloud chaser isn’t really that good, if there’s good snow it is but it’s really flat and a nightmare for snowboarders. my favorite is probably northwest, although i’m stuck on skyliner for race training most of the time

Over here in Southern Oregon, it’s lately been a storm, then a day of some sun and clouds, then a storm… rinse and repeat. Lots of wind with the storms too
