Then the weather took a turn, and we were closed for the rest of the night. We worked more on DIS, collimating the blue camera. The apollo laser was warmed, seems to be ok, though we did not test it on sky. ------- 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 57 46 13 81 (E) 251 mstly cldy none 17:00 55 45 15 77 (ENE) 206 mstly cldy none 18:00 58 42 20 77 (ENE) 192 mstly cldy none 19:00 56 41 17 70 (ENE) 184 mstly cldy none 20:00 54 46 19 73 (ENE) 258 mstly cldy none 21:00 51 47 18 74 (ENE) cloudy humid 22:00 49 47 25 72 (ENE) cloudy none 23:00 50 48 17 51 (NE) cloudy none 00:00 50 46 25 72 (ENE) cloudy none 01:00 50 45 17 71 (ENE) cloudy none 02:00 50 45 16 77 (ENE) cloudy none 03:00 48 48 8 182 (S) cloudy none 04:00 49 48 2 227 (SW) cloudy none 05:00 47 46 8 86 (E) cloudy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
