Telescope pointed due south to help remove snow/ice during the daytime. Winds were relatively calm all night so I did not bother with the snow program. I did final fills at 02:30 since we were closed anyhow. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 21 18 1 333 (NNW) mstly clr humid 17:00 21 18 10 74 (ENE) mstly clr humid 18:00 19 15 11 78 (ENE) clear none 19:00 20 13 7 92 (E) clear none 20:00 22 9 2 107 (ESE) 60 clear none 21:00 20 11 3 125 (SE) 70 clear none 22:00 20 11 10 141 (SE) clear none 23:00 21 11 12 172 (S) 91 clear none 00:00 24 8 7 186 (S) 153 clear none 01:00 24 7 7 184 (S) 301 clear none 02:00 23 8 6 184 (S) 204 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
