Thunderheads from that system kept creeping over us, so we stayed closed at sunset. We opened at 20:45, as a suckerhole presented itself. A storm cell formed to the southwest of us shortly after, and we closed again at 2140, and waited for it to pass. We opened again at 23:20 and we were able to stay open the rest of the night. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20:55 dcamera 424( 1141) 237 65 13.9 18.0 17.9 17.6 15.1 - 2.02 23:24 dcamera 403( 944) 238 38 12.0 14.2 14.4 13.8 12.7 - 2.01 01:04 dcamera 403( 813) 225 72 11.2 12.1 12.7 11.6 11.2 - 2.44 03:27 dcamera 579( 944) 116 52 11.6 11.0 11.5 11.0 11.2 - 1.46 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 66 42 11 188 (S) ptly cldy none 17:00 69 44 15 192 (SSW) 439 ptly cldy none 18:00 68 40 13 191 (S) 411 ptly cldy none 19:00 62 43 14 245 (WSW) ptly cldy none 20:00 61 45 7 192 (SSW) 517 ptly cldy none 21:00 57 49 2 125 (SE) mstly clr none 22:00 54 49 14 109 (ESE) mstly cldy none 23:00 53 44 23 128 (SE) mstly clr none 00:00 54 42 23 146 (SE) mstly clr none 01:00 52 42 27 145 (SE) clear none 02:00 52 39 25 142 (SE) clear none 03:00 52 41 23 142 (SE) clear none 04:00 52 41 19 145 (SE) clear none 05:00 53 41 16 163 (SSE) clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
