                  ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 First Half Observing Specialist: W.Ketzeback
 The enclosure had a great deal of snow on it at sunset even after running the
 snow program for 2 hours this afternoon. We remained closed, but ran the
 snow program all of first half.
 Second Half Observing Specialist: R.McMillan
 Clouds and fog cleared off around midnight.  Humidity remained high
 until after 0400.  Snow remained on the dome all night.  The wind was
 too light to make much progress in blowing it off.
