Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
IU Class: Z.Maas, Q.Sun, J.Gerber, K.Lester
Clouds kept us closed at the start of the night.  We had some clearing but humidity rose over the limit which then prevented us from opening.  Fog formed after Midnight and that kept us close the remainder of the night.
We gave up at 05:35 due to weather.
