gcam needed nubs restart during checkout
No real hope tonight. Things did clear up at sunset but there was radar just to the north of us and then the humidity spiked. We had freeing fog, cloud, winds, and eventually light snow by 3am. I hung out until 4am. I parked the dome south just in case there is any accumulation, but it doesn't look like there will be.
