              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Bradley
We battled a large system that skirted to our north.  The seeing jumped around, and we had light to thick clouds that came and went.  It was fairly cloudy most of the time.  Second half had fainter targets, so they had a harder time.  But overall it was a productive night.  No problems to report.
