Forecast is a winter storm supposed to hit us at 5AM this morning. So far no precipitation (well actually just a small flake of snow to trigger the rain sensor at 04:20 but nothing coming down by 04:40). That could change during the daytime if the forecast holds, but they are now predicting between 1 to 18 inches of snow so it sounds like the NWS doesn't even know. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- FAILURE MODE TIME PROG INSTR TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp Strc Prim Sec Air filt FWHM -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 37 19 20 266 (W) 537 cloudy none 17:00 36 18 16 257 (WSW) 396 cloudy none 18:00 35 15 16 264 (W) 334 cloudy none 19:00 34 22 9 217 (SW) 1941 cloudy none 20:00 33 22 11 211 (SSW) 3329 cloudy none 21:00 33 23 7 197 (SSW) 7071 cloudy none 22:00 33 23 6 193 (SSW) 7034 cloudy none 23:00 32 24 2 206 (SSW) 3176 cloudy none 00:00 33 22 1 312 (NW) 3898 cloudy none 01:00 33 17 6 69 (ENE) 1832 cloudy none 02:00 34 18 6 101 (E) 1114 cloudy none 03:00 34 19 7 118 (ESE) 1345 cloudy none 04:00 33 20 13 127 (SE) 1693 cloudy none 05:00 32 24 12 161 (SSE) 1296 cloudy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
