And finally they have arrived.

USS NASSAU (LHA 4), amphibious assault ship, anchored in the Kvarner bay, under my window. In the background are woods on the Ucka mountain eastern slope. 

Together with the aircraft carrier, amphibious transport dock USS NASHVILLE (LPD 13) and USS PORTLAND (LSD 37) arrived.

The sunny day of the morning was quickly locally upgraded, by the heavy spraying, to the chemtrail cloud dome with bottom at only 1.000 m a.s.l. 

One of KC-130 (left - image courtesy of US NAVY), stationed at the Krk airfield distant 30 km to the left, took off and in hurry flew under my nose and up in to the forming cloud to direct the spraying effort locally and to correct the weak spots.

Looks like we shall have USS SAIPAN weather again. 

Immediately on the arrival they started to transfer their equipment to the harbor using the assault ships. ON the above image is USS NASHVILLE and USS PORTLAND was tied to the pier.

So, until the April 27, when a joint military exercise with Croatian Army units on the nearby Slunj shooting range finishes, we shall enjoy the everlasting cloud cover with occasional VTRPE drills. 

Last time, when USS SAIPAN was here, I have lost two modems in three days due to the stray electromagnetic pulses. This time I have spare modem ready. And I know what to look for.

So, here it goes.
