              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
Opened around 16:30 to help cooling, We closed at 18:00 due to clouds and radrar returns.
We re-opened around 20:00.
My 2nd half observer finished a little early, due to clouds interfering and they already observed all of their brighter targets.
