I feel sorry for whoever was flying last night (friday), I heard two different a/c couldn't tell through the noise of the wind and rain but sounded like light twins or small turbo-props outbound (I think) over YSRI one at about 01.30 and another about 02.20 to 02.40ish in the morning, howling winds and bucketing rain, I think yesterdays Area forecast had Sev Turb and icing quite low throughout most of the area. Wouldn't like to have been flying in it!
Sorry to wake you Doctor but that was me, inbound on the ILS, then outbound a little later!

Luckily I managed to bypass Willy!

Worked both thur/fri and fri/sat nights, boy I am gonna enjoy my days off this weekend!
