THis is good stuff, but we're still looking for someone to take on being our collector of information (historical documentation officer). WE need one person to pull all this stuf together, to be our maps and documents guy.

Are you out there?

It's a RAWS, a Remote Access Weather Station. They are all over the US, used by the NWS to predict weather and wildland firefighters to predict fire behavior. The info from the weather stations is transmitted by radio and the data is gathered by the NWS and made available on the web.

Here's a link for every RAWS in the US: http://www.raws.dri.edu/

the L.A. weatherman just said--- chance of sprinkles friday--- clearing and warmer next week !!!!! (forecast into the 70's ! for next week !!!!)

RockHoe · 02-04-2010, 08:22 PM

prepare for the worst. 35 degrees, rain, 50 mph wind, blowing dust. I have seen it all in JV. The weatherman can be wrong and you will be miserable. Have fun bring whiskey and goggles.

What does this entail? I have a bit of GIS & mapping experience, but I'm not sure I could do what you need. Can it be done from a distance? I'm in CO & won't be attending KOH. I'll help if I can.

Mark, my post was like in 2008. Things have changed now. I would contact Friends of Johnson Valley (join them) and see what the latest is.
thanks, Del
