MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observer's Report for 2001 Jun 20

Observer(s): John Thorstensen
Institution(s): Dartmouth

Instrument: Echelle direct

Worked for 2 hours (last half of the night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
Problems were encountered, see the summary for details.

Seeing and Weather:
   Clouds all night.
   Beg: Overcast, Winds Light & Variable
   Mid: Overcast, Winds Light & Variable
   End: Seeing 1.4 arcsec, Patchy Clouds, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

Thunderstorms early, two power glitches caused all the computers
to crash (UPS didn't function).  Cleared partially around 2:30,
and I was able to work for the rest of the night.  Dome did not
return to contacts exactly, about 6 in of error.
> I'm submitting a revised report because I realized I'd
not changed the default  clear  settings in the  clouds  boxes
under  seeing and weather conditions .
