I think the camera lens has become damaged somehow. I doubt anyone will be able to fix for a while.
Now, the former high-rez camera is capturing images that look like they were done by a Impressionism painter.

It looks as though the camera has been restored to it's normal self, although I can't extract the image and share it for some reason at the moment.

Dave,
I agree that it is looking better -- but it is still not quite as sharp and clear as it used to be.

But the continued existence of "THE HUMP" is very impressive!
Actually, I see now that the camera stopped working yesterday at 10:12 am on the 11th (yesterday.)Quote:

Yeah that's the same image I saw but it would no longer let me save it as an image. However if I click on the Live feed it appears to be working just fine.

Those scoundrels.
Yes, I see that they moved the source of the server to something that we can't easily identify.
Yep, the human mole has been back at work today.

Raining in Las Vegas -- but very nice still in the Sierras!

I was just taking a look at February's summary from the Winter Rangers report. This year there was 94 inches of new snow recorded, 33 inches over average for the month, and just 5 inches short of last February, which turned into a record breaking year.
As we head into March there is a much wider gap compared to last year. March 13th 2024 had a settled snow depth of 58 inches, compared to March 14th 2023 which had 146 inches recorded.
This image was taken on March 7th 2024 at Tuolumne meadows.

I still don't think this image is as clear as it was -- but I guess that's the way it's going to be.

The weather looks settled for the next few days, but there is real potential for significant sonwfall on Friday and continuing throughout the weekend. With gusty winds it wouldn't surprise me if a weather warning is issued.

My pick is Monday May 20 at 9 AM, a week before Memorial Day, but I'm probably too early as opening depends on how hard they work to do it and how much snow falls between now and then. Liam has that Friday which seems like a good guess along with that Saturday.
I see that Thoma has an entry in poll for May 20-26, but I did not see a post with a guess.
