Clouds, rain. Clouds, fog. Kinda clear, humidity. We weren't able to open all night :/ The echelle IOL script seems to be having a problem. When I take exposures in the Echelle window they look fine and all the users had their cals look fine. When I took an IOL script set of exposures at sunset and dawn then looked like biases. I took the exposures by hand and they looked good and ran the IOL script one more time and everything looked normal. So, there's only one IOL set for the night. ------- 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 63 37 8 281 (W) 221 mstly cldy none 17:00 62 38 5 232 (SW) 229 mstly cldy none 18:00 62 40 2 219 (SW) 224 mstly cldy none 19:00 60 39 3 100 (E) 209 mstly cldy none 20:00 59 39 2 145 (SE) 291 mstly cldy none 21:00 54 44 25 71 (ENE) 2006 mstly cldy none 22:00 51 31 21 76 (ENE) mstly cldy rain 23:00 47 32 24 74 (ENE) cloudy fog 00:00 46 31 26 73 (ENE) cloudy fog 01:00 45 45 19 79 (E) cloudy humid 02:00 45 45 15 86 (E) ptly cldy humid 03:00 45 45 9 90 (E) ptly cldy lt rain 04:00 50 44 3 152 (SSE) mstly clr humid 05:00 51 44 7 157 (SSE) mstly clr humid Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
