MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observer's Report for 2007 Oct 05 Observer(s): K. Schlesinger Institution(s): OSU Instrument: 4K Worked for 9 hours (all night) Conditions were Mixed most of the night. No equipment or software problems were encountered. Seeing and Weather: Clouds from 10 until 11. Beg: Seeing 2.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate Mid: Seeing 2.5 arcsec, Patchy Clouds, Winds Moderate End: Seeing 2.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate, high humidity Observing Summary: The night started off with very little cloud. However the seeing was pretty terrible, ~2.5 . I think the moderate-strong winds contributed to this. Clouds rolled in for about an hour in the beginning of the night. They passed after around an hour. The seeing remained poor for the rest of the night. The humidity also rose dramatically around 5 am, resulting in an early shutdown. ------------------------------ Submitted on 2007 Oct 6 [5:39:53]
