              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
The night started with clouds, clouds, clouds, humidity, freezing fog, etc. I'm not sure if it ever really snowed... The clouds cleared around 2 am but, because there was ice on the dome, I kept to the 15 mph wind limit. NM08 needed at least an hour on sky and as the winds were still gusting over 30 mph at 4:30, we called it. I parked the dome south so the ice could melt tomorrow afternoon.
No problems tonight.
