I told them I'd ask NOAA and MLSO folks to check on them tomorrow if the weather still looks bad enough that they can't drive down, and I'll check on them Tuesday morning if I can get that far. ___end___ CoMP COMMENT BY DARRYL: Sun Feb 19 19:17:57 GMT 2012 Looks like power went out last night but came back on, we have power now, the CoMP PC and Pulizzi channels were off. I turned everything except the camera channel (#3) back on, to conserve LN2. ___end___ NOTE BY DARRYL: Sun Feb 19 19:42:24 GMT 2012 Checked on everything and put some drip catchers were drips are occurring ot may occur. The weather is n't clearing, I'm heading down before the weekend snow crowds start coming up and blocking the road. ___end___ Sun Feb 19 19:44:32 GMT 2012 MkIV
