Dataq was frozen again so I powercycled with netswitch (did not need to reconnect TCP/IP). We were surrounded by storms most of the night but only got a little bit of rain. We didn't open. ------- 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 66 52 8 259 (W) 1621 mstly cldy none 17:00 63 53 14 213 (SSW) 1853 mstly cldy none 18:00 67 54 12 215 (SW) 2122 mstly cldy none 19:00 63 51 5 188 (S) 1996 mstly cldy none 20:00 58 44 17 67 (ENE) 530 mstly cldy none 21:00 57 44 11 80 (E) 607 mstly cldy none 22:00 60 50 3 236 (SW) mstly cldy none 23:00 58 48 10 58 (ENE) 1305 mstly cldy none 00:00 58 49 2 116 (ESE) 1601 mstly cldy none 01:00 59 47 6 19 (NNE) mstly cldy none 02:00 57 50 5 86 (E) mstly cldy lt rain 03:00 60 42 6 317 (NW) 696 ptly cldy none 04:00 59 44 1 224 (SW) 1020 ptly cldy none 05:00 59 43 3 113 (ESE) 904 ptly cldy none 06:00 57 46 8 93 (E) 1270 ptly cldy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
