I just got back from Fredericksen's Meadow. When I left at 9:30am this
morning, per my plan, the wind was gusting to an estimated 20 or 30mph and
it wasn't the FM type gusts. This wind was continuous not the cyclical kind
from the meadow caused by its heating from sun.
Steve Coe, myself and another gentleman, with a very nice Mellancam(?), from
EVAC were there. There was a little breeze Thursday night and we have a 7/7
session. Friday night was much better, no wind and I called it an 8/8.
This morning the wind was another story.
Steve said on Friday, he would be there until Wednesday after Memorial Day
and would decide then if the stay would be exteded. Unfortunately he
doesn't have internet connection and if his plans change we will not know
about it until he finds a location that will permit him to connect to the
internet.

There is always' next week. The crowd at the Meadow are even having
stronger winds. The Discovery Telescope site is really gone to the dogs

I'm thinking it's too breezy to have a good observing session. (It's
plenty
windy right now at my house near Scottsdale and Shea.) If the usual DOTM
crowd was going up anyway, I might come for the party and take my chances.
But it sounds like most folks either are at the Meadow or plan to pass on
this one. Better luck next month, I hope.

I was just talking with Marker Marshal, our Ranger contact at the Grand
Canyon, and she says they've already had winds hit 60 MPH today.

OK. I guess the :-/ icon is a wry smile? Got it.
Actually, it turned out okay last night after the sun went down. The
winds
stopped (they were hitting 30 knots about 6:00 pm) and the sky was good,
though not great.
Today's forecast is for 40 knot gusts and even 30 knot gusts tonight.
Sunday's transparency forecast degrades badly too.

No problem here. The last email was meant as a joke. I'm sure he'll
understand. I sent him a weather report last night, so no big deal.
