They were spotted on 14.215 this afternoon but they were not coming long 
path and very weak here.  At 0200 they were still 4/4 short path.  They came 
up on 21295 and were working Florida and South GA but were very weak here 
(S2 max).  NC4G was calling but never heard him work them.

They showed on 28495 but not a peep and a Vk4 was posted working them and he 
was not readable either.  E51 was on 28466 at S5 in SC but again he was just 
readable here.  Later they were posted on 18.160 but not even a trace .  A 
KP4 said they were loud there at 0300 but still nothing.

Signals were coming in from all over.  I heard a UA9 on 18155 working a TI 
and he was S9.  ZL4IR was S9 on 18.117.  Russia and East Asia was loud on 
20.

SF and spots are dropping quickly.  The forecast is for SF = 82 by mid week. 
Depends on the A and K indices now.
