Would wind direction have made the difference for pyroclastic flows? I thought flow direction was largely driven by local topology.

Canon's webcam software was until recently free. It was the sole reason I bought a Cabin camera. This is a rug pull.

Thank you for sharing. I hadn't read that critique but I am in wholehearted agreement. Dynamic typing imposes significant cognitive overhead in exchange the privilege of letting you writing incorrect programs.
