              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
gcam needed a nubs restart during checkout.
nicfps was fine for checkout and then needed an init during the users first exposure.
The night started with some intense thunderstorms and light hail. We had rain on and off all night with high humidity and clouds. There was no hope of opening tonight. Maybe tomorrow...
