Forbes 2015 – Day 4

We get a rest day today, the weather has turned ugly with a trough and associated thunderstorms passing over us today. It was windy from the morning and building clouds already at 8:30.

The dustdevil that tricked me on day 2, this photo is at around 1300meters, and that dustdevil is 4-500 meters high, so it should have been very strong lift in that area, I probably just could not find the core, it was turbulent enough!
