Spotting AT JFK 1/15/07

[brontis5]

I was just wondering if anyone would be out at JFK doing some spotting. So far the forecast is calling for rain, but I have the day off and I might go out there anyways. Every time I go spotting I hope to run into someone else out there, but it hasn't happened. OK, take care.

The weather forecast is basically ruling out any chance of me doing any spotting this weekend; even if it's not raining at any given point in time, it looks like there's still going to be an overcast sky.

I'm just going to wait for the next nice weekend (with sun & non-hypothermia-inducing temperatures).

Hey, Phil, what's a little frostbite compared to getting perfect light?

Most of us work during the week so the weekends are when the majority of the locals are out. Monday is looking like a bad day, unless you just want to watch them come in I wouldn't get your hopes up to get any decent pictures.

Well right now an ice storm is moving though OK and coming this way so the weekend is not looking good. I would monitor the wx and go from there as Monday is concerned.

Are you working Monday Tommy? It's a federal holiday.

I was planning to go on Monday as I have the day off from school but the wx is a problem.

It's a federal holiday.

What's a holiday? We publish 364 days a year, I get 6 paid holidays a year. The news is a serious business :D

Yes I am, oh joy. All of my Friends who work for large companies are working as well. In general most of us spot on the weekends though in general.

..and let's not forget those of us IN aviation. There is no such thing as a holiday. I will be flying to STL & working in SUS the balance of the day Monday.

I work for a large company and I'm off! This is actually the first year they've celebrated Martin Luther King Day...I got there just in time. Too bad the weather is ****e. :(

I still had some hope that the weather would turn around and we would get a semi-warm beautiful winters day for tommorow but I guess all chances are nill.

I was especially looking forward to tommorow since it would have been the first time my mom took me spotting but she gave me a rain check for some other time. No pun intended ;)

when i was in school i always had off for my birtday because of the holiday. now that i'm working, i'm stuck working...

[brontis5]

Yea, the weather is horrible today. I guess I will have to wait until next weekend or something. Hope to see some of you all out there when I do make it out.

Weather is looking good next Sunday, still a bit far out to call but right now its calling for sun. If its nice I'll be out.

And as usual my sunday spotting will be limited to behind some thick glass in a tower at LGA even though thats not so bad. Me and Matt have fun. Anyone want to do a LGA run with me sometime soon (tower excluded)
