              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Bradley
Most of the night was lost to clouds with nearby radar returns.  Throughout the first half we had occasional very high dust spikes, and some high wind gusts.  It cleared up enough to open shortly after 03:00, and seeing was variable.
No problems with the inst checks script, and no motion errors.
