Staff: Chris, Rick. Chenning on site most of the day.
The morning was cloudy and it had rained slight just before arriving on site.
Chris and Rick on the morning sounding. Air was so still the balloon rose nearly vertically for quite some time.
Right away noticed cryptic warning on ISS1 Nagios that suggested data was not being received in a timely manner from the south camera. Went out to visually inspect – nothing obvious. Discovered later that this warning appears throughout the day. However, the camera is clearly updating properly. WIll need to talk with Gary about the nature of these warnings.
Nearly complete cloud cover until noon, then partly cloudy with a wind of 6-8 m/s from the Northwest.
Random checks on the 449 power supply: low 2.87A high 3.00A (spikes to 4.9x when RASS is operational)
Afternoon sounding: Chenning and Rick. With the wind, the balloon took off like a shot, but oddly took a good 5mins+ to traverse just a kilometer down range
