              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
Thunderstorms, and things that break. It was an active checkout as power outtages had affected the equipement. Mirror covers needed a reset, as well as the enclosure motors. Arcsat ics needed a reboot, and the scope had run away. The nicfps terminal server was all upset as well. Could not get into TS due to lack of PW, so Tracy will look at it tomorrow.
A suckerhole opened around 21:00 and we decided to go for it due ot the onsite observers. Suckerhole closed at 21:35, with possible rain in the clouds.
Clouds and rain blew out around 23:00, and we opened again. The skies were clear, seeing was so-so, and we stayed open until dawn.
