Gave up a little after 04:00 as CU01 wouldn't be able to observe the transit after this point and no real hope of the weather improving. Low alt drive hum during test slews at 10 alt again. ------- 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 39 33 18 250 (WSW) 318 mstly cldy none 17:00 37 32 18 224 (SW) 550 mstly cldy humid 18:00 37 33 16 242 (WSW) 699 mstly cldy humid 19:00 38 35 13 266 (W) 910 mstly cldy humid 20:00 37 35 14 270 (W) mstly cldy humid 21:00 38 35 14 220 (SW) mstly cldy humid 22:00 37 35 17 219 (SW) mstly cldy humid 23:00 37 35 15 219 (SW) cloudy humid 00:00 38 35 14 212 (SSW) cloudy humid 01:00 38 35 13 205 (SSW) cloudy humid 02:00 38 34 16 219 (SW) cloudy humid 03:00 37 34 10 241 (WSW) cloudy humid 04:00 37 35 9 215 (SW) cloudy humid Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
