CalSky and Wx balloon sightings
I just noticed that there's a CalSky option for sighting weather balloons which they describe as "experimental". Has anyone here tried that option and, if so, were the predictions accurate? patrick

No, but I did notice the military blimps on the way to Wendover and back this week. They are just a few miles north of the highway about 50-60 miles this side of the state border at present.
Well, I guess they could be considered "whether" balloons (they help decide "whether" the target continues to exist...or not). :) patrick On 18 Feb 2012, at 15:37, Chuck Hards wrote:

Yeah, Wendover is such a hotbed of terrorist activity... Just yesterday morning, there was no cream OR sugar in my coffee, despite my distinct order and generous tip. Nuke 'em.
