We had to keep closed despite a nice weather. Humidity was high in early and late night. I let the IH01 observers (on-site) take DIS flats. They wanted to check any variation while the NA2 focus rotates. ------- 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 21 18 8 342 (NNW) 405 ptly cldy humid 17:00 20 18 10 331 (NNW) 405 clear humid 18:00 18 15 7 307 (NW) 405 clear humid 19:00 17 14 8 331 (NNW) 405 clear humid 20:00 18 15 12 323 (NW) 405 clear humid 21:00 18 14 12 317 (NW) 405 clear humid 22:00 18 13 15 333 (NNW) 405 clear none 23:00 19 14 16 306 (NW) 405 clear none 00:00 18 14 12 296 (WNW) 405 clear none 01:00 19 14 12 314 (NW) 405 clear none 02:00 20 17 12 327 (NNW) 405 clear humid 03:00 19 17 10 327 (NNW) 405 clear humid Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
