FIRST teams might want to consider ways to communicate that reduce travel and team practices that are practical in the event we have more bad weather like this as an example.

In the grander scheme if for no other reason then perhaps to tap mentoring and knowledge from more remote people that might be just too far away.
We're losing at least 3 days at the beginning of build season (yesterday, today, and tomorrow) so far, plus the makeup days where we usually meet all day, including the day before bag day.

On the communication front, I had a nice long meeting with my engineering captain this afternoon by Skype. We got a lot accomplished, though certainly not as much as if we were able to meet in person.
