MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2009 Jul 02 Observer(s): Mark Reynolds Institution(s): UofM Instrument: TIFKAM Worked for 1 hours (part of the night) Conditions were Overcast most of the night. No equipment or software problems were encountered. Seeing and Weather: Clouds all night. Beg: Clear, Winds Calm Mid: Clear, Winds Calm End: Clear, Winds Calm Observing Summary: Closed due to heavy cloud and/or thunderstorms most of the night. Telescope shut down for lightning from 1800 - 2300. The cloud partially cleared from 0200 - 0345 allowing me to open but the presence of lots of patchy cloud ensured that no usefull data was taken. As thunderstorms are forecast over the next couple of hours, I will shutdown the telescope now ~ 0530 ------------------------------ Submitted on 2009 Jul 3 [5:30:10]
