MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observer's Report for 2001 Feb 16

Observer(s): Jacob Noel-Storr
Institution(s): Columbia

Instrument: CCDS

Worked for 12.5 hours (all night)
Conditions were Mixed most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1.8 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Calm, Poor transparency
   Mid: Seeing 1.8 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable, Poor transparency
   End: Seeing 2 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable, Poor transparency

Observing Summary:

'Scope and Instrument working fine. Sky conditions not
cooperating a lot... lots of haze/cirrus on the horizon for
most of the night, and poor sky transparency and seeing in 
general. Seeing probably worse than listed during exposures
judging by the changes in the stars on the guider screen.

At least it wasn't humid or snowing ;-)
