Clouds. Rain. Fog. Wind with fog and rain and clouds. Even more rain. One very tired obs spec who, seeing it was futile to hope, closed out early. We are anticipated to have rain/snow (it won't snow) until around noon. gcam needed a restart at the beginning of the night. I think there was a power flicker at 3am but the mirror covers opened and closed just fine. Remember folks, chocolate is on sale today!
