Summary: Cold and foggy, low RSSI because of bird poop

2024-12-19
Mayberry

Kyle and I arrived at 11:05 PST. It was cold and foggy and we could hear the cows being especially talkative. We had a big storm last week and more rain coming all next week. The levee roads are covered with short green grass. The staff gauge read 58cm.

The smaller solar panel set was a little skewed and needs some TLC. The back legs are on the ground (not secured) and one of the front anchor points is attached with a zip tie since the bolt hole is rotten.

I downloaded met, cam, and USB GHG data. I still need a water level desiccant tube here! Kyle cleaned flux and rad sensors. The RSSI was low because there was bird poop on the lower mirror. The precip bucket funnel looked clean. I measured the surface water conductivity.
Surface, 1683uS, 8.6C

We left at 11:20 PST.
