              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
THe night started of will clouds on all horizons but clear over head.  Rain threatened from all around but we were good until 00:10 when the clouds were too thick for UW02 and AD02 and we closed. Everything cleared up at 1am and we were able to reopen.  The clouds persisted the rest of the night and the NA01 observer was not able to collect enough photons after 04:36 and we closed.
No problems tonight.
