Team-1,

You guessed it, too much wind.  The forecast for the entire Saginaw area is for 18Mph wind gusting into the 30s.  It is just too high to operate a 1 day launch.  However, since we have lmited time left to get in another launch at Birch Run, I've decided to defer the launch again.  While the ground is not exactly frozen, the wind will tend to keep the ground dry and maybe we will get a launch or two in before heavier spring rains and planting season.  I know that the deferrals make it hard to plan weekends, but hang in there!

Team-1,

Looks like we can't get a break on the high winds.  The Saturday forecast is for 20mph winds gusting to 45mph, so we're gonna' pass on that!  Gear up for the 22nd and hope for better weather!

Team-1,

The weather just doesn't want to settle down on launch day, with steady wind at 15 gusting to 27 and 95% low cloud cover.  The next date on the schedule is March 15.  Hopefully then we'll get back on track.
