              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
Afternoon started with a breif episode of snow, then it gave way to partly cloudy skies. There was still precipitation near us on the radar, so we did not open right away. The rain passed, but humidity was high. Humidity was forcasted to back off shortly, so we risked an opening despite the humidity. Humidity stayed borderline high until 22:00, then backed off. We powered through it and did not close. Humidity came back around 00:00, but only low borderline, again, we stayed open. We stayed open until dawn.
