    We will be YouTube live April 8th 2024 for the Solar Eclipse operating W2E special event call here in Genesee County NY we are directly in the path and will see total totality. A big thanks to The ROC-HAM Radio Network in Rochester, New York for allowing us to operate here from Genesee County sharing their special event call https://www.roc-ham.net/solar-eclipse... We not only plan to stream live but have a camera outside so you can watch the Eclipse over our shack.

    National Weather Guesser Service forecast says Monday will be sunny in middle New Hampshire.

    The 9"-16" of snow that's forecasted for Wednesday/Thursday should be still around to see the eclipse. That'll freshen up the New England mud season experience for those people from away.

    I'm betting that will reduce the number of naked hippy sun worshippers up 'narth come Monday. :D

    Just read a post about "disaster" declarations. Gimme a break! I'm thinking the worst is some solar panels won't be working for an hour. Oh well.

    Does this have disaster potential?

    The people awaiting more than the Moon will provide. Its just like dawn and not more. The big thing will happen in the atmosphere. And this is what operators really wants to know.

    Just read this:
    "Hilarity coming from ME, NH, and VT. Bunch of idiots went up for the eclipse and somehow forgot that chargers are few and far between. People in VT were sleeping in their Teslas in line for the one available charging station in St. Johnsbury last night into this morning. Northern NH was even worse. Maine was a shit show."
