              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
gcam didn't work at checkout, restarted Nubs fixed it.
ARCTIC needed a 'status' to read a few pink values.
A rain cell to our NE moving our direction and one Southwest of us, kept us closed at the start of the night, plus it was cloudy.
Candace was doing remote student training tonight for UV03.
We finally opened around 22:45 under partly cloudy skies but the threat of nearby rain seemed now gone.
No secondary issues tonight, everything worked fine.
Dome parked at 104,70 in case of rain during the daytime.
