              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
The night was dark and stormy... Clouds rolled in from all side.  We were surrounded with the bursts of angry clouds that shook the earth with their might. The rain raged around us for most of the night.  Then, the storm began to calm.  An eerie calm with no rain or thunder but still the discharge of potential off in the basin. We were not able to open tonight, though, we tried to weather the storm out.
No problems tonight.
