Ran the snow program until 3 am, when I shut down after doing morning fills. Parked dome in the south to respectfully encourage the snow to blow off the roof, as it has overstayed its welcome. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- PROG INST FAILURE MODE TIME (SEDFNVOG) TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp Strc Prim Sec Air filt FWHM -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 24 22 38 261 (W) 196 mstly cldy none 17:00 24 22 34 261 (W) 435 cloudy lt snow 18:00 23 21 25 266 (W) 351 mstly cldy lt snow 19:00 23 21 22 254 (WSW) 509 mstly cldy none 20:00 22 20 15 256 (WSW) 88 mstly cldy none 21:00 22 20 20 301 (WNW) 103 mstly cldy none 22:00 21 19 17 297 (WNW) 75 mstly cldy none 23:00 20 19 23 296 (WNW) 80 ptly cldy none 00:00 20 18 8 265 (W) 69 ptly cldy none 01:00 20 17 14 264 (W) 82 ptly cldy none 02:00 21 16 13 260 (W) 65 ptly cldy none 03:00 20 16 7 311 (NW) 108 mstly clr none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
