Yesterday we noticed a weather balloon which appeared to be fully
expanded slightly to the east of Moriarty. It appeared to move slightly
to the west as the day wore on and, when I landed at 5:30, it was
perhaps 20 to the west of Moriarty. Winds up to about 16,000' MSL were
out of the west at about 13 kts. I wonder at what altitude the wind
shifted approximately 180 degrees.

Don't know but the balloon was at 128,000 ft. according to a friend of
mine
that researched it yesterday.
