From watching the radar, I did not feel comfortable opening again after that. 2nd Half Observing Specialist: R.McMillan We opened for a sucker hole late in the morning and barely got useful signal on one target before we got suckered. Aside from that, it was cloudy all morning. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- PROG INST FAILURE MODE TIME (SEGDFVO) TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Air/Truss Wind Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp-C Dir MPH filt FWHM --------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:14 dis-slit -100(721) 136 73 3.8/4.0 262 15 - 1.4 18:16 NA2gdr 586(44586) 137 73 4.1/4.1 265 16 R 1.0 04:19 DISslit -150(601) 169 58 1.2/1.8 262 21 - 1.46 -------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:01 38 -1 9 240 (WSW) 236 prtly cldy none 17:01 38 -10 14 266 (W) 132 prtly cldy none 18:01 40 -8 14 260 (W) 167 mstly cldy none 19:01 39 -9 18 266 (W) 131 cloudy none 20:01 37 -10 17 266 (W) 148 cloudy none 21:01 36 -11 14 247 (WSW) 207 cloudy none 22:01 36 -12 25 269 (W) 217 cloudy none 23:01 38 -10 18 262 (W) 182 cloudy none 00:01 37 -11 30 267 (W) 203 cloudy none 01:01 35 -8 18 274 (W) 265 cloudy none 02:01 37 -3 16 271 (W) 357 cloudy none 03:01 37 -2 13 272 (W) 383 cloudy none 04:01 35 7 24 279 (W) 316 mstly cldy none 05:01 35 10 12 287 (WNW) 306 cloudy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
