October 23rd 2022, K9YO and AA6DY awake

K9YO was first to wake at 13:38 UTC, Grid GO27LC over the Labrador Sea, between Newfoundland and Greenland. Our Locate and Track page has been updated for Ventusky, Sondehub and NOAA Hysplit Trajectory for 84 hours and now show K9YO to head east and make a short loop to be just east of the current location between Greenland and Iceland. K9YO is flying at an altitude of 12,140 meters, 39,819 feet. K9YO is now on 12 days and 21 hours of flight and the 2nd lap around the world.

AA6DY woke at 15:42 UTC at Grid DK18NE, west of Guadalajara, Mexico. Our Locate and Track page has been updated for AA6DY for Ventusky, Sondehub and the NOAA Hysplit Trajectory for 84 hours with another change from yesterday. NOAA has AA6DY waking up over Newfoundland on October 27th, 2022 not too far from K9YO. AA6DY is flying at an altitude of 14,480 meters, 47,494 feet for 50 days and 2 hours of flight, and the 2nd lap around the world.

We were tracking Hurricane Roslyn over the North Pacific east of AA6DY which made landfall as a Major Hurricane and now a Tropical Storm over west central Mexico.

We will update our Locate and Track page for any updates. AA6DY was launched on September 3rd 2022 and K9YO was launched on October 10th 2022. It would be pretty amazing if they were flying in the same area on October 27th 2022. 73, Cary KD9ITO
