              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
Evening started with mostly cloudy skies and rain approaching on the radar. That rain stalled, and did not arrive. A suckerhole seemed to open and we tried to take advantage of it, but it was not clear enough to yeild usable data. We closed again at 22:11, as rain was once again encroaching on us. Rain on the radar persisted all around us, but did not fall locally. Observers gave up by 03:00, since the transit had been missed.
