Yet another beautiful morning on the Schuylkill. Crossing tail Winds co-linear with the course for the F8+ race were measured from 2.7 to 4.7 mph near the start of the race with a mathematical average tail wind of 3.9 mph. But there was still some gusting from a line of rain showers had passed through Philadelphia earlier in the morning, gusts generally with the course, so I'd put the actual average tailwind at ~5 mph. Temperatures in moving air were measured at ~57.2 F. When the wind was still, temps were measured in the low 60s F.
