Participant❓ I must be a few crow feathers Southeast of Musselman.(West of Co4&23 LarimerCo.)We have lived out in this area for over 30yrs.We learned early on to adjust our life style, to prevent fire damage. We had a burn a few years back just west of us (Parrish Ranch area,straight west of CoRd4), It reminded us to make the necessary changes to our place to prevent range and rual fire damage.
Maybe the last two fires will remind new comers (and recent property owners) to the area, that they need to do the same with their properties.
Hopefully it’s and eye opener to all.. 😯September 16, 2010 at 1:01 pm #53129

Jeffrey Joe HintonModeratorI can’t change the weather but I am doing the rain dance regularly. Boulder County is imposing a Fire Ban and I suspect other counties will follow suit. Admittedly, the whole state is rather beyond dry and tinder.
Eurythmy for rain!

ParticipantFor my part, I’m going to be away on VACATION from October 2-7… if O’Fest gets cancelled, I will stay out on the road until the 9th. As such, I selfishly hope the call is made more than the day before. Mother Nature will almost assuredly let us know. Looking at the cloudless sky and the forecast, I know that if we had a launch scheduled for this weekend we’d probably cancel it today or tomorrow.
Another factor with a launch like Oktoberfest is that many people come from a long ways away – I have friends coming from Iowa, and I’ll bet Doug G will be coming up. As such, we probably need to make the call a bit ahead of time.
Stay tuned.

Today about 0.25″ rain fell on the launch site according to radar storm total. Not enough to change the fuel moistures by itself, but a good start.

Participant8) I am a CoCoRaHS weather observer also. I see from morning reports from around the state, that we received some good moisture in some places. Too bad more was not received up on the Pawnee. 0.03″ here SW of Berthoud. Most stations reporting in 0.02″-0.05″ on average in this area.
Mike, you need to do more rain dances up there, sense your closer to site. 😆 -
