                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialist: W.Ketzeback
 The radar and satellite maps showed a steady stream of wet weather streaming
 from the South East tonight. There was alot of clouds with an occasional
 break in the clouds but I just could not be convinced at anytime tonight
 that it was safe to open. So we remained closed. Humidity slowly climbed
 and then fell a few times throughout the night but never went over the limit.
