Harmless Weather Instrument? Harmless Weather Instrument My Ass

Last Swim:  Sunday, 10 am

Clarity: Meh
Waves: Bit 'o chop
Crew: Scotharoo, Virginia, She Who Must Not Be Named ("SWMNBN"), Kahuna
Next swims: 12 high noon Sun. and Sat.; 6&6 M-F




Found on the beach today by SWMNBN, the above, remnants of something that looks vaguely like a large amount of latex fabric, along with data collection and transmission equipment, labeled "Harmless Weather Instrument."  Sure, that's what they want you to believe.

From the web page posted-"(4) If the radiosonde is missing a mailbag, is damaged (e.g. exterior casing is crushed), or was found floating in water, it should be disposed of following regulations in your area for handling discarded electronics with depleted lithium batteries." Was it properly disposed of?

The truth is out there.
