Look very good. Steady easterly direction with average drift of around 60 miles. The weather is not optimal as of right now.

Both microtraks are functioning properly and ready for launch. Ran the test on number 2 today.
The predicts are looking iffy. There is a 65 mile SE drift. If we launch in Washtucna then we land near Genesse.
We decided to conduct our launch with out the University. May 3rd students do not have school so we will take advantage of that time to perform the launch. Genesse will be attending as well.
Weather and jet stream were not cooperating for a launch. Not sure when we'll get it in.
We are coming down to the launch date, Apr 14th, but due to weather forecasts we have scrubbed the launch. Of course after we made the decision the forecast changed. So we'll see what happens. It would be cool to do the launch with the university due to the fact that they're launching two balloons. One with a NASA project. In addition there might be a couple of scientist from NASA on site. The students would think that is cool.
