We never opened. The second half observer was a no show tonight. Given the weather conditions I did not feel it was worth waking the NMSU Scheduler or others to find them, since I could not locate contact information for the observers other than their emails, which I sent a message to halfway through first half with no answer. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- PROG INST FAILURE MODE TIME (SEGDFNVO) 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 56 54 12 139 (SE) cloudy lt.rain 17:01 54 53 11 116 (ESE) cloudy lt.rain 18:01 55 53 9 138 (SE) cloudy lt.rain 19:01 55 53 11 130 (SE) cloudy lt.rain 20:01 53 53 16 125 (SE) cloudy lt.rain 21:01 52 53 12 112 (ESE) cloudy fog 22:01 53 52 13 111 (ESE) cloudy fog 23:01 52 50 13 142 (SE) cloudy fog 00:01 51 50 17 133 (SE) cloudy lt.rain 01:01 53 50 10 181 (S) cloudy fog 02:01 52 50 11 196 (SSW) cloudy fog 03:01 52 51 9 185 (S) cloudy fog 04:01 51 52 8 185 (S) cloudy fog 05:01 52 51 6 186 (S) cloudy fog 06:01 52 50 6 201 (SSW) cloudy fog, lt.rain 07:01 52 52 6 186 (S) cloudy fog, lt.rain Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
