                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist, 1st Shift: Noel Camron Hastings
 Clouds and high humidity kept us closed throughout first half.
 Observing Specialist, 2nd Shift: Russet McMillan
 I'm beginning to suspect that we will get more snow by Thanksgiving
 than we got during all of the last winter.  There was less than an
 inch of accumulation by morning, but that was with a forecast of 0
 precipitation.
