We were able to get on sky for a few hours during the first half, but the humidity finally rose past closing levels after 23:00 and never went back down. No other issues. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19:33 dcamera 68( 295) 16 74 4.0 7.3 6.4 6.8 4.7 -- 1.29 22:30 dcamera 330( 203) 264 63 3.6 4.3 4.5 4.2 3.5 -- 1.57 23:37 dcamera 371( 233) 225 51 4.0 3.9 4.4 3.8 3.6 -- 1.40 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp C Dewp C MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 7 -1 5 260 (W) 220 ptly cldy none 17:00 6 -4 4 256 (WSW) 191 mstly cldy none 18:00 4 -5 1 225 (SW) 210 mstly cldy none 19:00 4 -3 3 254 (WSW) 297 mstly cldy none 20:00 4 -6 3 216 (SW) 228 mstly cldy none 21:00 4 -2 12 184 (S) 282 ptly cldy none 22:00 4 1 10 202 (SSW) 407 ptly cldy humid 23:00 4 1 9 205 (SSW) 506 ptly cldy none 00:00 4 2 9 227 (SW) 546 mstly cldy humid 01:00 3 2 10 242 (WSW) 430 cloudy fog 02:00 3 2 7 207 (SSW) 3827 cloudy fog 03:00 3 2 8 214 (SW) 38220 cloudy fog 04:00 3 2 8 189 (S) 668 cloudy humid Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
