Just a couple of quick and final thoughts on your comments….

First off all the AVN is a model.
Check out the National Weather Service’s page of definitions
under AVN
http://www.srh.noaa.gov/LUB/safety/glossary.htm
and look under AVN for it’s definition.

or check out
http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/html/contract.html
and look under AVN for it’s abbreviation explanation.

As for your comment on the accuracy of the NGM model being higher than
the AVN
model is unfounded. It is common knowledge that the AVN model is more
accurate
than the NGM model. No further comments are offered.

As for your comments on the accuracy of the Winds Aloft Forecast, let
me just say that the winds aloft stations are totally different than
the NGM model stations which means that they are two different sources
of information. If the Winds Aloft Forecast came from the NGM model
then there would be a Winds Aloft Forecast for every NGM station.

Good soaring!
