The second storm fell apart quickly and so we opened at 20:45. It's pollen time around the mountain, so we ran the fans in high dust mode. Pollen did not seem as bad as previous days, perhaps it's nearing the end. Seeing was ok, and it stayed clear. We were open the rest of the night. UW Donated the last hour of their time to NM03 as their target had set. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20:50 dcamera 560( 1245) -21 74 14.8 17.5 16.9 17.3 15.4 - 1.14 22:35 dcamera 472( 1068) 14 35 14.3 15.2 15.4 14.9 14.7 - 1.40 01:21 tcamera 601( 1437) -5 57 14.7 14.4 14.9 14.1 14.4 Ks 1.11 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 62 38 12 310 (NW) 652 clear none 17:00 63 38 1 324 (NW) 430 clear none 18:00 63 38 6 353 (N) 505 clear none 19:00 61 44 6 295 (WNW) 474 clear none 20:00 58 49 3 258 (WSW) 457 ptly cldy none 21:00 57 36 8 275 (W) 602 clear none 22:00 58 35 8 272 (W) 648 clear none 23:00 59 38 7 264 (W) 706 clear none 00:00 59 37 1 245 (WSW) 606 clear none 01:00 58 37 1 312 (NW) 566 clear none 02:00 56 38 2 331 (NNW) 599 clear none 03:00 57 39 9 360 (N) 652 clear none 04:00 58 39 14 17 (NNE) 609 clear none 05:00 57 38 13 17 (NNE) 496 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
