Just after switching to spicam, the clouds rolled in, and we remained open trying to get data. After seeing clouds only for 20 minutes, I closed at 00:30. Called it a night at 05:00 with no hope of the clouds clearing. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19:42 dcamera 237( 547) 14 59 6.4 9.2 8.9 8.9 7.2 -- 1.50 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp C Dewp C MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 11 0 9 226 (SW) 204 mstly cldy none 17:00 9 0 14 216 (SW) 282 ptly cldy none 18:00 9 1 7 220 (SW) 298 mstly clr none 19:00 7 0 7 125 (SE) 347 clear none 20:00 6 1 1 190 (S) 234 mstly clr none 21:00 7 1 8 171 (S) 97 mstly clr none 22:00 7 1 11 174 (S) 46 mstly clr none 23:00 7 2 11 173 (S) 71 mstly clr none 00:00 7 2 13 170 (S) 145 mstly cldy none 01:00 6 2 12 166 (SSE) 282 cloudy none 02:00 5 3 11 148 (SSE) 311 cloudy humid 03:00 5 3 17 135 (SE) 393 cloudy humid 04:00 6 4 14 130 (SE) 131 cloudy humid 05:00 6 3 11 150 (SSE) 145 cloudy humid Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
