              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Bradley
We had clouds, fog, humidity, and light snow flurries towards morning.  Add high winds and snow from last night to the mix, and we did not open tonight.  Started running the snow program when snow seemed likely.  Gave up at 5:30
Tspec is happy.  No problems.
