                  ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: N.C.Hastings
 All day the clouds were thick and heavy snow fell from time to time. It
 was warm, so it melted fast. We remained closed while thick fog, snow
 and rain alternately set in. Paula Szkody and I conducted some tests
 with DIS II to get a better feel for windowing and binning of the chips.
 There is significant time to be saved by binning if possible and
 it seems reasonable to keep the chips windowed as well.
 I left heaters on all night as temps were cooperative. Heaters were
 left on when I departed. Some ice on railings and walkway of 3.5m.
