🔥 Thermal: Sailing school at the Untersee: thermal wind every day in a good summer; otherwise W-NW. Usually from SW, strongest around 18:00.
FoilFlow checks the thermal conditions every day (sun strength, wind aloft, Föhn, Bise and the lake's own pressure rules) and shows when it is likely.
Forecasts from several weather models (e.g. ICON, AROME, HARMONIE) and live measuring stations nearby are in the app.
