We would not normally account this as EQUIP time, but it's hard to justify listing it as OBS. Weather was cloudy for most of the night due to Hurricane Kay; it might have been borderline usable during second half, but I decided that listing the time under bad weather made the most sense. ------- 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 32 12 80 (E) 1597 cloudy none 17:00 63 32 9 87 (E) 1568 cloudy none 18:00 62 32 6 83 (E) 1326 cloudy none 19:00 59 31 11 87 (E) 1442 cloudy none 20:00 58 29 22 79 (E) 1602 cloudy none 21:00 58 30 24 70 (ENE) 2029 cloudy none 22:00 57 31 2 231 (SW) 1790 mstly cldy none 23:00 57 31 9 133 (SE) 1770 mstly cldy none 00:00 56 31 13 126 (SE) 2320 mstly cldy none 01:00 55 31 6 91 (E) 2698 ptly cldy none 02:00 55 30 3 97 (E) 2630 ptly cldy none 03:00 55 29 7 47 (NE) 2187 ptly cldy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
