I had planed on setting up up at the corner tonight by 7:30, but there's winds blowing up to 60mph at times, and unless those winds die down, home I'll stay. -- The Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord Sidewalk Astronomy www.sidewalkastronomy.info The Church of Eternity http://home.inreach.com/starlord/church/Eternity.html

Odd thing going on now, we've got winds blowing thowards the west, these are the Hot,Dry winds, BUT the cloud of smoke from the Day Fire which is to the west of me, it going up and coming in towards the East now, which means we'll get the edge of it too. -- The Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord Sidewalk Astronomy www.sidewalkastronomy.info The Church of Eternity http://home.inreach.com/starlord/church/Eternity.html "Starlord" <starlord@sidewalkastronomy.info > wrote in message news:X5WdnYV6Y-6iBojYnZ2dnUVZ_oudnZ2d@inreach.com... >I had planed on setting up up at the corner tonight by 7:30, but there's >winds blowing up to 60mph at times, and unless those winds die down, home >I'll stay. > > > -- > The Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond > > Telescope Buyers FAQ > http://home.inreach.com/starlord > Sidewalk Astronomy > www.sidewalkastronomy.info > The Church of Eternity > http://home.inreach.com/starlord/church/Eternity.html > > >

I noticed the same thing in the Santa Clarita Valley today, Dennis. Winds were blowing from the northeast but Day Fire smoke was blowing *to* the northeast. From west of the San Fernando Valley I could see a plume of smoker rising from the Day Fire and going west, as expected, with the smoke above it going east. Very, very weird. While I was in the Santa Clarita Valley for a few hours two more small fires started there. Mike Simmons

I've gone out about once an hour or so and for the most part the AV area has been overcast with the smoke, it had crossed this area and was aimed right at Palm Springs from the look of it. Going to watch the neaer time machine movie to see how it stacks up to the older 1950's one. -- The Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord Sidewalk Astronomy www.sidewalkastronomy.info The Church of Eternity http://home.inreach.com/starlord/church/Eternity.html "Mike Simmons" <mikes@nospam.mtwilson.edu > wrote in message news:1phc6bsttvc31$.1ieeeichnv9tj$.dlg@40tude.net... > On Sat, 23 Sep 2006 15:44:32 -0700, Starlord wrote: > >> Odd thing going on now, we've got winds blowing thowards the west, these >> are >> the Hot,Dry winds, BUT the cloud of smoke from the Day Fire which is to >> the >> west of me, it going up and coming in towards the East now, which means >> we'll get the edge of it too. > > I noticed the same thing in the Santa Clarita Valley today, Dennis.
