                  ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: Jack Dembicky
 Snow on enclosure kept us closed all night long.  Snow program was run
 all night but roof heaters were off due to ineffectiveness with the
 nights cold temps.
 I turned the roof heaters on in the morning before I left and parked the
 enclosure due S to maximize melting of ice on the enclosure via the sun.
