               ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
 Observing Specialists: B.Ketzeback
 Azimuth Velocity Scale: Was 580.0, Measured 580.1, No change made
 Clouds and nearby radar returns kept us closed first half. By second
 half the skies had cleared however humidity remained over the limit
 for the rest of the night. We did not open.
 I spent the night archiving data, scripting, and log mining.
