What's up with the webcam? Just fog maybe?

[CP Maverick]

Yes, quite a bit too.

It could possibly be fog covering the webcam as the third webcam on the page is grey as well. But, the middle camera is visible but, you can see great amounts of fog in the distance.

Sad to not be able to see the webcams It's going to be an even LONGER weekend now. #OffSeasonProblems

 

But at least we know the construction site isn't going to change any... Because it's Saturday and they don't work on Saturdays! So next time we see it, it should still look the same!

[CP Maverick]

Unless Tony really wants to mess with us and move the cameras around.

I'm not trying to get anyone's hopes up or anything, but we my have some lift hill up. We will most likely find out tomorrow.

Lift hill?

[FaithPlus1]

certainly looks like it!! Too bad Raptors Lightsaber isn't on.

[RyanTPM]

Yeah, that has to be the first piece up!

[FaithPlus1]

Watch the live stream. Im guessing the camera is on Power Tower because the sky is constantly changing color! Kinda cool.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! If this is true then... I missed it!!!

 

However, glad the lift hill is finally going vertical!!

If you search #cedarpoint on instagram one of the first few results is a picture of lift track put into place. I would link it here but I'm just not just how to.

[DorneyKid14]

Fog must be bad still, or the webcam doesn't like me.

[DoinItForTheFame]

^ Fog is still really bad. I checked the second webcam, and it's really foggy close to the ground too.

[DorneyKid14]

God damn it northern Ohio.

^ That makes me happy to see!! Instill can't belive they were working on a Saturday!!

[BeansproutMidget]

Ah, so when I'm away for a few days, CP decides it is the best time to install a lift piece. Wonderful.

 

Anyone seen the camera this morning? Because that fog is AMAZINGLY AWESOME.

[oriolat]

Someone left the fog machines from Halloweekends on :

 

I love this shot!

[KarlaKoaster]

That is incredible!

Even in the fog, Raptor insists on photobombing.

[DorneyKid14]

We have a crane down! I repeat, we have a crane down!

[FaithPlus1]

^? Thats how the crane is left while not in use.

[DorneyKid14]

I feel dumb now

[GCI Wooden]

Even in the fog, Raptor insists on photobombing.

 

I actually don't think I've seen a picture of Valravn (Other than some animated renderings) without Raptor photobombing.

[Geartooth90]

They also do that with the crane when weather is not favorable, in this case the heavy fog. Also I don't think they put a aircraft warning light on the top of the jib, would be hard to see the top with out one.

At least my guess with the part of the lift hill being up was correct. Look taller than I thought it would be with that piece in place.

Hopefully they will be adding more this week.

I think before they top the lift off they will need one more lager crane to lift track and a small tall crane for a man basket.
