Tropo maybe later this week and weekend

The warm air coming in and forecast to stay the better part of a week could potentially yield some classic fall tropo. Worth keeping an eye on things starting, say, Thursday morning through to early next week.

Forecasts at:
www.dxinfocentre.com/tropo.html

Real-time activity maps (for DXers and hams but on areas of the band close enough to FM) at:

I won't be at my DX site unfortunately, at least not for the first while, but might go DX mobile if things look promising.

Re: Tropo maybe later this week and weekend

Dry air with this warm front hasn't helped form tropo ducting, but there's a chance things may change starting tonight as the air becomes a little more humid. Tropo watchers should keep an ear/eye on conditions... I'm in Toronto, not at my DX site, but if I start to hear reports from other DXers or if the real-time (mostly ham) maps look good I'll consider going mobile...
