For convergence soaring conditions, a pilot is concerned with the development of one or more specific phenomena causing convergence. For soaring in [[Synoptic Convergence]], a pilot should use synoptic weather products, such as **surface analysis** and **prognostic charts**. For soaring in [[Mesoscale Convergence]], knowledge of the local landscape and associated weather patterns conducive to convergence are a good place to start. High resolution wind forecasts, and **forecast discussions** can provide insight as to how, where, and when convergence will develop. In addition, weather information sources such as **Windy** and **SkySight** can assist in identifying areas of convergence.
