Aloft? Ok. Does your term "Aloft" refer to uppers?

Winds Aloft is the correct term for the wind speed/direction from usually 3,000 feet on up in 3,000 ft increments. "Uppers" or "Upper Winds" is slang for Winds Aloft.

For example:

FT 3000 6000 9000 12000 18000 24000 30000 34000 39000

PHX 9900 3608+06 3417+02 3121-02 3132-16 3239-28 335443 337253 327362

For Phoenix, the winds aloft at 12,000 ft MSL are out of 310 degress at 21 knots and the temperature is minus 2 degrees C.

I officially dub this "The Jason Thread" because no matter how many times someone tries to kill it it will not die.

In that line of reasoning you could call it the "Ex-Wife Thread"

Please don't let this thread die.......It has been, by far, the greatest waste of time I have experienced in a LONG time.
I do beg that if anyone who has never visited our wonderful DZ has formed a poor perception of it from these silly ramblings, PLEASE don't come and visit. If you are that impressionable, you and I should not hang out because your mother would not like the naughty things you would learn from me.

LOL bigdaddy.

I don't get how you landed 2 miles away from the DZ? At 13,000 you should have way more than enough time to get back.
