We took a UV sensor with us on a recent cruise and did UV measurements under different conditions.

The talk will cover what the UV Index is and conditions that affect it. The next topic is how to measure it using a low cost sensor and available technology from my basement. (Your basement may vary, but there is nothing too esoteric.) I'll talk about the hardware and software needed. At the end I'll cover some things to consider for future expeditions.

Also, annual K-LUG elections, PCIG nominations, socials brainstorming, and a discussion of PCIG's future.
I skimmed through the logs, and none of our regulars seem to have found these, so hopefully everyone will qualify for the achievement.


Parking:
There is a limited quantity of 2 hour parking in St. Marys Park proper.  However, the neighborhood parking permit restriction opens back up starting at 5:30, so by starting at 6 pm you should be able to park on the street (and not be competing with employees for spots) for the duration of our explorations.
