The dust spiked and kept us closed while under full clouds. Thing started clearing, but that's when the humidity went up. We weren't under fog, but everything was veeeeeery wet, enough to set off the rain sensor. I called it at GS01's cut off of 4am. Dataq needed another restart tonight. ------- 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 74 31 10 233 (SW) 4123 ptly cldy none 17:00 70 32 13 248 (WSW) 3709 ptly cldy none 18:00 74 32 16 268 (W) 3323 mstly cldy none 19:00 70 32 10 269 (W) 3542 mstly cldy none 20:00 67 32 10 255 (WSW) 3573 mstly cldy dust 21:00 66 31 14 240 (WSW) 3387 cloudy dust 22:00 60 46 13 149 (SSE) cloudy dust 23:00 60 27 17 149 (SSE) 2943 mstly cldy dust 00:00 56 27 23 136 (SE) 1510 mstly clr humid 01:00 56 26 14 146 (SE) 5151 clear humid 02:00 55 25 17 164 (SSE) 3831 clear humid 03:00 54 32 18 153 (SSE) 1936 clear humid 04:00 54 31 8 184 (S) 1537 mstly clr humid Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
