                  ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: B.Ketzeback
 Heavy clouds and approaching precip kept us closed first half. Second half
 we were able to open for a short time hovering just below the dewpoint/
 humidity closure limits. We closed for clouds at 0230 and never reopened.
