Discovery flight in a helicopter, and weather conditions?

Hello! I have a helicopter discovery/into flight next Tuesday and am way excited. I have previously had a couple of intros in fixed wing and loved it, but now am leaning more towards helicopters. Anyway, next tuesdays weather here in provo utah is said to be a high of 58 degrees and a low of 36 degrees. It will probably be more in the fifties. The wind will be going north at 5mph so im not worried about that. Anyway, My question is is will it be ok to fly it this pretty cold weather?

THANK YOU FOR ALL REPLIES!!

It won't be a problem. Helicopters actually get lower performance at hot and high temps (ask the pilot to see their power check chart). As long as you don't get too cold (36 is no problem) and stay at reasonable altitudes, there will be no issues.

Cold Weather shouldn't affect you too much unless your going really high.
