              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
The louvers were not opening during checkout either via command or manually, a PR was sent.
We, surprisingly to me, were able to open tonight! The wind wasn't as bad as it was supposed to be until after midnight. The clouds however...they forced us to close around 22:00.  Snow started around 2 am and winds were over 50mph.  I did NOT run the snow program but I did park the dome south.  There was barely any snow accumulation, perhaps 1/4 inch.
The Agile filter wheel wasn't responding.  I executed a hub startNubs but it didn't solve the problem.  I restarted agile and the wheel went to all "?". Everything started working again after I logged into talk2boxes and rehomed the wheel.
So sleeeeepyyyyy
