RS E0914322

Temp = 8oC, Press = 1022.4, Humidity=94%, Wind direc 304o, Wind speed 30 Knots

High cloud deck, strong inversion seen. High particle counts seen - typical conditions for the past 2 days.

Brett connected 6 x 1.5V (Energizer AA Alkaline industrial batteries) in series, used glue to seal solder connections. Launch affected by ship structure again but smaller balloon got away OK. Balloon burst at 26.6 km - battery solution worked well.
