(* means a trouble report has been issued or appended to)
The telescope could not be open this evening due to high humidity, heavy fog,
and overcast skies.
Julie Lutz was the observer for WS02, but was shut out by weather.
At 1:45, the alarm went off in the computer room, as the temp. had reached
86'F.  Allyn Smith, John Briggs, and I set up some fans to cool the room down.
