              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: G.Saurage
Mostly overcast first half with variable seeing. Winds began picking up around 11:00
and then humidity followed near midnight. That combined with radar returns closing
in forced us to close about 12:20. Light snow second half.
