The MN02 program was having issues and Gordon believed it was due to running a non-trunk version of the hub. MN02 still was having issues afterwards (excessive logings in TUI). It is saying that MN02 is not a known program. Weather prevented us from opening tonight. We had some light snow around 21:00 and Possibly some more heading towards us around 04:30. There was no chance of opening tonight. I did fills at 06:00 and it was foggy with light snow falling. Just a dusting on the sidewalks. ------- 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 25 5 17 277 (W) 2742 cloudy none 17:00 24 8 8 264 (W) 7389 cloudy dust 18:00 24 11 12 263 (W) 13902 cloudy dust 19:00 22 12 12 252 (WSW) 9643 cloudy dust 20:00 22 14 21 260 (W) cloudy none 21:00 20 14 19 252 (WSW) cloudy lt snow 22:00 19 15 13 256 (WSW) cloudy lt snow 23:00 18 16 22 267 (W) cloudy humid 00:00 18 17 20 279 (W) cloudy humid 01:00 17 17 22 289 (WNW) cloudy humid 02:00 17 17 14 287 (WNW) cloudy humid 03:00 18 17 21 273 (W) cloudy humid 04:00 18 17 20 275 (W) cloudy humid 05:00 19 18 25 276 (W) cloudy lt snow 06:00 19 18 18 277 (W) cloudy lt snow Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
