              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Bradley
Held off on opening because or nearby radar returns and very cloudy conditions. Opened in a clear spot between sets of clouds, but had to close again when I switched users.  Stayed closed the rest of the night, with a few drops of rain and heavy clouds.  Gave up at 05:17.
Russet gave her hour to the Uw06 program.
