              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Bradley
Night completely lost to falling snow and high humidity.  Did some cloudy night tasks for Bill, which included nicfps testing. This test didn't go well, since I succeeded in getting the failure from last week to happen again and couldn't get it to stop failing.  PR submitted.  Otherwise, did some snow removal.  Built no snowpeople, unfortunately.
Dome parked facing south, ready for snow program to resume (it ran all night)
