Lights on Mynydd Moel: an early start for call-handlers

16/7/2014

 
 ASART volunteer team co-ordinators faced an early start when at 2:40 a.m. reports were received of a flashing light spotted above Dolgellau on the ridge below Mynydd Moel.

As well as the first informant, the light was observed by local Police officers and a local team member joined them to assess the situation. Having viewed the area, talked to the first informant and local Police officers, a decision was taken that the source was moving when last spotted, and therefore unlikely to be a distress call. It was concluded that this was a false alarm-with good intent, and by 5:30 a.m. team members were back in bed. Unfortunately some were then woken at 7:30 a.m. by another call-handler  who had missed the original message and wanted to know what was going on. Sorry Dave!
