              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
The night started with clouds and virga.  Things cleared up around us enough that we were able to open at 22:40.  Seeing was poor to moderate all night with clouds periodically rolling in.
Kevin Schlaufman finished his third night of training and is now certified to observe remotely.
The NICFPS LN2 dewar hose broke during afternoon fills (however, it is still functional for the time being) and I sent a problem report.
