                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 1st half Observing Specialist: G.Saurage
 Clear skies. No Problems.
 2nd half Observing Specialist: R.McMillan
 Clouds started to move in at the very end of second half, and by the
 time we changed instruments they were bad enough to prevent
 refocusing for a while.  Then that wave passed off, and we observed
 through a couple of thinner waves of clouds until they closed in for
 real.  Rain/sleet started before 05:00, and by dawn we had some nice
 blowing snow or freezing frost going.
