Borderline closure-level humidity for several hours after the rain cleared out. The TSL dewpoint sensor was frozen, the optidew sensor may have an insect inside so we were relying on the sloan TSL and the inside optidew sensors. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 00:24 arctic 475( 832) 27 55 11.8 13.7 14.4 13.7 12.7 SDSS-r 1.36 02:32 tcamera 525( 849) -33 43 13.2 12.0 12.4 11.9 12.0 Ks 1.17 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 58 31 8 117 (ESE) 938 ptly cldy none 17:00 62 31 6 91 (E) 1313 ptly cldy none 18:00 61 30 1 199 (SSW) 930 ptly cldy none 19:00 61 30 9 85 (E) 1503 ptly cldy none 20:00 57 30 14 80 (E) 1459 mstly cldy none 21:00 57 30 19 72 (ENE) 1483 mstly cldy lt rain 22:00 57 30 11 70 (ENE) 1219 cloudy lt rain 23:00 57 29 16 77 (ENE) 1284 cloudy none 00:00 53 29 16 72 (ENE) 1394 mstly clr none 01:00 53 29 10 73 (ENE) 1444 mstly clr none 02:00 53 31 7 78 (ENE) 1513 mstly clr none 03:00 56 30 7 86 (E) 1069 mstly clr none 04:00 56 30 10 38 (NE) 1144 mstly clr none 05:00 56 32 14 56 (NE) 898 mstly clr none 06:00 53 31 11 39 (NE) 1019 mstly clr none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
