              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
We had storms around us at the beginning of the night but they didn't become a bother until 11pm when the radar started exploding over us. It never actually rained, but it was everywhere until about 2:30am. Once things started clearing up, I checked the pollen and it was quite high. My car has a very nice shade of yellow on it. Given the high pollen, I called it at 4:30am.
No problems tonight.
