I thought we would get on sky. It didn't and we didn't. Humidity spiked at sunset and there was fog rolling on the edge of the cloud cam. The rain started falling a little after 1:00 am which then turned to clouds with more rain on the way. The observer called it at 4:30 when they ran out of usable time. No problems tonight. ------- 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 64 52 9 256 (WSW) 2221 ptly cldy humid 17:00 64 51 9 264 (W) 1997 ptly cldy humid 18:00 62 54 9 217 (SW) 2074 ptly cldy humid 19:00 62 54 6 198 (SSW) 2167 mstly clr humid 20:00 59 53 7 129 (SE) 2274 mstly clr humid 21:00 59 52 7 217 (SW) mstly clr humid 22:00 59 49 4 202 (SSW) 1808 ptly cldy none 23:00 58 49 6 224 (SW) 1770 mstly cldy none 00:00 59 50 11 203 (SSW) 2209 mstly cldy none 01:00 57 50 5 192 (SSW) 2332 cloudy lt rain 02:00 53 45 21 43 (NE) cloudy rain 03:00 50 47 17 63 (ENE) cloudy lt rain 04:00 52 46 5 86 (E) cloudy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
