Comments:AMAZING 2+ hour buildup for the start!!!! 400'+!!! Gorgeous day outside!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!! All details later. Runoff not too bad when I arrived. At around 0950, SV began picking up in energy like it had for a stretch a few days ago with better volume, sustain, and better willingness for nice play without the aid of NV. NV responded by slowly getting more volume and more frequent & thicker vertical. The runoff improved and we were getting frequent 3's down the channel. The activity continued improving with gradually thicker and more sustained SV. SV vertical bursts became more common, and NV steadily got bigger and more frequent vertical. About 30m prior Art reported the first sustained SV vertical and at this point NV was giving out almost start-worthy vertical every few minutes....

Report was that wind was from the north? Of course it erupted on Memorial Day!
