Watching the Skies
Hi Elves of Sector 1!
As you may have heard on North Pole Radio News the activity covering the crisis in Santa’s Workshop is supposed to be affecting all Sectors and the work we do as tracker elves. I have been listening to Elf Crash and the elves at North Pole Flight Command to figure out what direction we need to be taking right now. Honestly it is hard to sort out.
We really want to be watching the skies for any activity we see. So, this would be a good time to reacquaint yourself with the sleigh sighting report and to be prepared to use it at any time.
The skies over the shipping lanes associated commonly with the Pacific Ocean would be our target – meaning that areas in Japan, the Philippines, all of Micronesia and of course the east coast of Australia and all of New Zealand – you could see sleighs, day or not. If you see something, say something.
In terms of how we can help them, well, it’s all about the weather, Of course, for many parts of our sector it is an active weather season and that is why we have been sending in weekly weather reports. Right now, I would tell you, if you see big changes in your weather or a forecast for unsettled weather, especially with high level winds, we need to know about it. Do not wait to send in a weekly report if you are seeing more changes of a more immediate nature.
From what I have been told teams led by Comet and Cupid are active, leading a fleet of teamsters driving sleighs full of rubber, aluminum, silicone and oil. They are running back and forth, north to south and back north again, through the skies roughly every 18 hours.
In addition, there are no less than 6 ships of the North Pole Navy likewise on the waters of Sector 1 in the Pacific. Even though each of these ships have their own weather teams, we still want to remember them in our weather reporting. I have asked for positioning information on each ship but have yet to have that information given to me.
I am hearing that Prancer and Vixen might be leading another team of sleighs through our skies soon, too. I’ll keep you updated.
Thanks!
