MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observing Report for 2009 Jun 18

Observer(s): Parks, Terndrup
Institution(s): OSU

Instrument: 4k

Worked for 7 hours (most of the night)
Conditions were Mixed most of the night.
Problems were encountered, see the separate trouble report for details.

Seeing and Weather:
   Clouds all night.
   Beg: Patchy Clouds, Winds Calm
   Mid: Overcast, Winds Calm
   End: Patchy Clouds, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

The night started out with ok seeing at about 1.5'' but there was
sporadic cloud cover which resulted in about an hour and a half of
lost observing time. The cloud cover mainly prevented obeserving 
of Cygnus, but did not affect observations of NGC6633 for the most 
part.  The guiding worked very well again (when clouds allowed 
enough counts) and seeing improved throughout the night, 
eventually dropping to below 1''.  Wind was not an issue.
