"Apparently, they are experiencing terrible weather in Homer and our partners from SeeMore are concerned about getting out to McNeil to break down the camera system, since they need to fly out to the site on a small plane. Their pilot has identified a window of opportunity to get them out to the site on Thursday for a Friday shutdown. The safety of our wonderful partners is definitely of paramount importance to us at NGM, so we have advised the SeeMore crew to take advantage of this window and do what needs to be done.

"How does this affect the timeline laid out a few days back? Only slightly. The techs will be flown out on Thursday, but will not head out from their base camp to the falls until Friday morning Alaska time (this is all 'weather permitting,' of course... apparently, the wind is really howling quite hard up there...).

"If all goes according to plan, they will be shutting the system down at around 10 a.m. Alaska time on Friday, which translates to around 2 p.m. for east coast [U.S.] viewers. So you will have approximately 4 hours on Friday to enjoy the live feed before it is closed down for the season."
