MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observing Report for 2025 Sep 02

Observer(s): Thorstensen (for Cohn)
Institution(s): Dartmouth

Instrument: Templeton direct

Worked for 3 hours (last half of the night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Clouds all night.
   Beg: Overcast, Winds Light & Variable
   Mid: Overcast, Winds Light & Variable
   End: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

Classic monsoon in afternoon and evening, but cleared off well 
enough to open by about 2 AM (and the humidity dropped). There
was high cloud, but mostly pretty light.  Kitt Peak stayed closed.
ostensibly due to high humidity, but it was about 50% at MDM so
that seems a rather steep gradient.
