Big snow drifts, driving up the mountain today. Heavy, blowing snow. I think we've had one day, since we've been here, that was clear. It's very windy but not terribly cold, unless you're working with metal parts on the camera boxes, with your bare hands. Heavy snow all day. Not looking forward to the drive back down the mountain.
The forecast, at various times during the day.
light air - 2 m/s
light breeze - 3 m/s
gentle breeze - 4 m/s
moderate breeze - 9 m/s
fresh breeze - 10 m/s
strong breeze - 14 m/s
Even though it is currently 10 degrees F, that "light breeze" makes it feel like -1 degree F. Getting darker and darker. You lose all sense of time.
Good news from the launch site. They have finished loading the payload canisters, so we're that much closer to starting this launch window. Now if only the snow would stop..... Hoping to see Miguel and Lamar up here on Monday :)
A good night to stay in.
