Not yet --- it's only 5:58 AM there right now.    (UTC time is local there).   
I have been watching the altitude start declining as it made landfall.  Not 
sure if this is the end, or just that it was warmer over the water than over 
land.  Anyhow, we should get sunrise in about an hour -- hopefully warming both 
the helium and the batteries.      [The batteries are 4 Energizer Ultimate 
Lithium AA cells -  "they just keep going and going and going....".]
