Hi Dion, We got 30 knots, gusting 41 knots this morning in Toowoomba (~120km inland) but it appears to be getting better. This will have hopefully all passed by the time you want to go glide. Dont forget to check out DDSC (www.ddsc.org.au) , and Kingaroy (http://www.kingaroygliding.com ) as options, if the weather isnt suitable for a glide at your preffered spots, though they're not exactly in the direction you're travelling.
