Water tower last week. the "feels like" was around 5. Real temp was somewhere around 15 - 20. Winds yeah, were something above 30 MPH.
Fixing backhaul alignments. The good thing about a water tower, though, is that if it gets really bad, you can just hop back inside the tube to get out of the wind. If you're tied off properly, the worst that happens is you fall on your butt. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chuck Hogg via Af" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2014 2:59:21 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] wind speed cut off for climbing I climbed last week for 5 hours, 25-30mph steady wind over 70', 40-50mph gusts at 26 degrees...it sucked.

I don't think there's any way to tell from the ground. It is a lot harder to make that decision when someone else is doing the climbing... I wouldn't ask anyone to go up in weather I wouldn't climb in myself, but then again, I've also climbed in weather I wouldn't tell someone else to go up in. I don't think there really is a good rule of thumb, a lot depends on what the climber is comfortable with, and experience.

Probably it is an overload/short. It will fade out and then come on full brightness. This was the green LED and may not exist with the LED anymore, especially since it's a different type of LED.

Might need additional ground crew and taglines, maybe a second climber. When you say new climber, how new? What kind of training/certification? Ultimately you are depending on the climber to call it off if it’s not safe, and a newbie might not have the experience to know when it’s not safe. If you’re talking about today, at least it’s been way above freezing the past 2 days, so the likelihood of rain freezing to the tower should be minimized. Also, how high are you sending him? Big difference between 100 and 300 feet.
