Wow, woke up a bit late and now there's 30 more pages to the thread since last night. What'd I miss Team Taco? Any shenanigans worth noting? (How many balloons they sending up this time? The callsign for the NY balloon is Krogan?)

Impossible.  Winds up the east coast most predominately head toward the northeast following the Gulf Stream.

Only time the winds go southwest is during a Nor'easter, and it would just whip around the center of the storm in that case.

If it lands in Brooklyn i'm going for it which is very unlikely.

Lots of wind, so they moved the launch (geographicalyl and time wise)

They launched about 10-15 min ago.....just north of Allentown in PA

[VoteDogbert]

if it makes it to Connecticut absolutely I am.

[Collitinius]

Turning more northerly

[Sleepee]

Looks like it's starting to catch those upper atmosphere winds. If APRS is anything to believe, it's currently doing just over 100 mph.

It's going 115 MPH now!

[Severyx]

Oh Keelah. 115 MPH

[ICEEJOE]

[Collitinius]

115mph? HOLY CRUD

[SSgt Firestorm]

She's heading north, bad balloon, very bad balloon, go east, go east

[JedTed]

How are you people tracking it? the website still says No Payload Detected.

[Sleepee]

Sorry about that, Jersey peeps. Looks like it's back on track for New York.

Umm... How much speed can it handle? Is there a chance the actual package could get ripped off the balloon if it goes too quickly?
