                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: G.Saurage
Scattered local thunderstorms kept us closed first half. Radar returns
kept up the threat until about 12:30am. We were able to open around 1:40am
although we still had thin cirrus all over for most of the rest of the
night.
