gcam needed restart
dataq needed restart
The afternoon started with rain! A night big thunderstorm. While the clouds did clear, it was only for a sucker hole as two storms came over us from opposing directions. And then there was more rain! Which we really need. But a bit sad that we were not able to open on the last night of shut down. ...but maybe that will make things better for the day staff, as that means I didn't break anything! Well, except my heart :(
