MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observer's Report for 2006 Feb 13

Observer(s): Bentz and Denney
Institution(s): OSU

Instrument: CCDS

Worked for 5 hours (first half of the night)
Conditions were Overcast most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Clouds from 1:00 until 7:00.
   Beg: Seeing 2 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Calm
   Mid: Seeing 2 arcsec, Patchy Clouds, Winds Calm
   End: Overcast, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

We started out the night with some thin cirrus on the horizon.  We
were able to observe Mrk110 and were halfway through NGC4151 when
the clouds became so thick that we couldn't guide and finally 
couldn't even see the target or guide star any more.  We watched
the Olympics and baked cookies while waiting to see what the 
clouds had in mind, and finally closed up around 4:30 with a 
still fully overcast sky.
