When I went up to put the telescope to bed I could hear ice falling off the roof. I parked the telescope due S in case of any chance of sunlight hitting the roof to help further melt the snow/ice. Roof heaters were left on this 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 --------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:01 31 28 27 67 (ENE) 115 Cloudy Lt.
